It was open this morning (Proceed with Caution) but has been closed for a couple of days. After the deluge that took place just moments ago it might be closed again tomorrow. The current at Wychnor is quite strong; when we got there on our walk this morning a boat was caught parallel to Cow Bridge and we had to push & pull his bow down stream so he could get out. Didn't get to ask him how he got in such a predicament but my guess is that he hit the edge of the narrow bridge hole, bounced off and the current caught him and swung the stern towards the bridge. He would have been there a long time if we hadn't had a load of walkers to pull him out. Which way are you planning on going - clockwise or anti-clockwise? -- Will Chapman Save Our Waterways www.SaveOurWaterways.org.uk
