Pocklington Canal volunteers give waterway spring clean
Members of Pocklington Canal Amenity Society have been working hard over the past month to make the waterway a haven for visitors.
The volunteers have painted a bridge, cleaned weed from the water, and are tackling the invasive scourge of Himalayan Balsam.
They have also fixed a bench where people can take a well-earned rest, strimmed a large section of the canal’s paths, and filled in potholes at Canal Head.
The society’s New Horizons pleasure boat is operating on Sundays and Bank Holidays until the end of October.
