Please be advised that contractors are undertaking essential works to stabilise and reconstruct the embankment upstream of Guyer's Lock.

As a result of these works, water levels within this pound will fluctuate throughout the construction period.

To minimise the risk of vessels grounding, customers are advised not to moor within this pound until the works have been completed.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding while these critical repairs are carried out.
