  • Thames21 are doing a clearance there on the 10th of this month with 30 volunteers and whatever remains will be taken out by boat afterwards.

    The canal is fenced off along that section and the reeds are there for a filter from the LF3 site and has never been cleared and we have no access by boat..

  • Wildlife lives on every stretch of the canal system, especially by trump, but you still regularly cut back and maintain these areas. So you answer appears to contradict what you do on other canal stretches
