We picked up a report this morning of a large tree blocking the canal near bridge 50 above Bosley Locks. This is confirmed on Waterscape. We had hoped to travel down Bosley tomorrow. Anyone in the area can confirm how the removal or otherwise is going please.

Yyyeess Mrs Tree I've tooked it. Being as the Tree in question fell down at Bosley which is near to Nutsford i immediately thought of you because of this, despite the other chaps mention of a large tree as i don't know how bbbbig you are.And then i remember you saying somewhere that you were in Wales. We have a Spellbrook and Spelbrook lock nearear though i have no hysterical knowledge about them :blush::unsure:

 

Ps, the K.
