In 1996 a successful bid was made which resulted in funding for the restoration of the section of the
Wilts and Berks Canal between Mill Lane and Kingshill Road. The landscape section drew up a detailed
specification for the dredging work -the contract for which was won by
Land And Water
Services (www.land-water.co.uk). Additional work was undertaken by volunteers from the
Wilts
and Berks Canal Trust (www.wilts-berks-canal.org.uk).
