A repair is being carried out at Lime Kiln Lock 30, in Stone, which will require a temporary closure of the navigation between 09:00 and 13:00 on Thursday 14 May.

Our team need to weld a brace onto the end of the lock beam where the head post has rotted away.

We thank you for your patience and apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause.
