Description

Original 30 May 2026, 12:23pm

A tree has fallen and is partially blocking the navigation, 600m south of Lock 6 Stenson Lock. Widebeams will be unable to pass, but narrowboats can pass with care.

We are working to remove the tree as soon as possible. We will update this notice when we have more information.
