Please be advised our teams will continue to monitor the obstruction until the removal can be prioritised within our asset maintenance programme, this work will need to be assigned to a specialist team due to the Scheduled Ancient Monument status and Grade II listing of the lock.
We continue to advise navigating through Lock 11, Beeston Iron Lock, Shropshire Union Canal with care due to a possible obstruction on the offside.
A further update will be provided when the repairs have been carried out.
