The Place

Another place where a huge project has been undertaken to restore the locks to working order so that boats will once again be able to visit Stroud.

The People

Iris Capps

Iris Capps, a former teacher, now manages the Cotswold Canals Knowledge website to provide information and ideas about the canal for teachers. She tells the story of a canal character from the past.

Nick Darrien Jones recalls some historical information and Mike Seward, an engineer for the project, talks about some of the challenges in this part of the canal. Bruce Hall describes an exciting new project and Chris Balodis takes us on a virtual mountain bike sprint before the restoration!
