Additional Information
The water point on site is for the use of all customers and is below the lock. Access to the site is through a wooden gate leading to a stone and dirt towpath. Boats are moored along a grass strip running parallel to the towpath. There is no dedicated car parking at the site. There is a small layby in front of the gated entrance which some boaters use for short periods but this is not Canal & River Trust property nor the Trust's responsibility. The towpath is well used, particularly by ramblers and dog walkers. "IMPORTANT NOTE: All customer items must be stored on the boat. Rings may be shared with neighbouring boats to best manage the water space. This is a leisure site and is determined by us to be a mooring site for the storage of boats between leisure use, customers may well spend weekends on this site, and occasionally longer periods, but it is not sold as, or intended to be suitable for long term residential use. This site does not have local authority planning consent for residential use, neither does it have the level of facilities and service expected of such a mooring. As such the offer that we have is only intended to meet the needs of a leisure boater. What3Words: ///lost.repeating.whisker
