The work on this part of the Montgomery Canal is largely done by enthusiastic amateurs, although certain parts have been completed by professionals using lottery money. The goal was to complete quite a long section down to where a new winding hole and mooring area has been professionally constructed. However, since the coronavirus pandemic all work has ceased and the target for completion at the end of this year of the section from here to the winding hole is now almost impossible to reach. Not all of the parts of the canal are even 'in water', but the wild life is thriving.
