British Waterways withdraws from the Cotswolds

It’s sad to read the news that British Waterways are withdrawing from the Cotswold Canals Partnership from April 2008.

With the government cuts to their funding and the need to find the money to repair the breach on the  Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal it was inevitable that something had to be cut.

It looks like the short arm of the Stroudwater Navigation at Saul Junction will be the only used section for a little longer than hoped.
