Canal Camps August 2018

Join me in helping to restore the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal


In August 2018 I'll again be leading two canal camps. They will be divided between Shop Lock, where we will complete the excavation and recording of the lock-keeper's cottage, and Cabin Lock, about 500m upstream, where we will remove vegetation and carry out other restoration tasks.

I'll post updates here after a site visit later in the Spring.

You can book your place on the camps here:
Week 1 (11th-18th August 2018)
Week 2 (18th-25th August 2018)
