Our work at Cosgrove is progressing well.  As well as replacing the top and bottom gates at Lock 21, we will also be undertaking extensive stone work repairs to the towpath side of the winding hole below the lock. 

As there is no access to the winding hole while the stoppage is in progress, we have installed a hosepipe running from the water point to below the bottom stop planks to provide water for moored boats.
