Restoration Begins as Pewsham Locks start to Rise
Today we go back to Pewsham Locks on the Wilts and Berks Canal as KESCRG are on site helping the local volunteers at the start of the rebuild of bottom lock, whilst on site coping stones are laid, brickwork complete, footings done, blinding concrete, reporting done on bridges and even tanks for rainwater harvesting and sewerage are being done.
