Heartland Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 I noticed what appeared to be gate renewal at Welshpool Town lock on the Montgomery last Tuesday- will this be an indication of improvements there, perhaps. There is currently a Bridge to Gap appeal to help rebuild Schoolhouse Bridge the last blockage in Shropshire on what is now called the Montgomery Canal. Though progress is slow the link Llanymynech is steadily moving towardss completion and once finished will require further work to reach Pool Quay. Once that is done, Welshpool again will be linked to the network! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland elsdon Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 We cycled the towpath this year pretty much all the way. To get away from the canal!! its truely wonderful the whole length. Locals friendly etc . Got to the point of looking in estate agents windows. The end is a slight disappointment you hope for a historic wharf but get a road called canal street, but the setting is wonderful. In some ways i hope its not opened because modern cruiser boats on this slow horse canal would be out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
