Brignall Mill works, River Greta, Teesdale (nominally)

[AHPP]

Hopefully to whom it concerns,

 

A job is apparently ongoing just downstream of Brignall Mill on the River Greta near Scargill. Maybe in Mill Wood or Hening Wood.

Not sure what the job is and whether finished or not yet but there is a fair amount of stuff in the river. The river is popular with canoeists. Trees in rivers are very dangerous for canoeists.

Would it be possible, whilst the river is low and while trained men with the right gear are there, for the trees to be cleared well onto the bank please. It's an easy 30 mins for you or several hard and sketchy days for paddlers with handsaws.

Thanks very much.

Don't think any of us arbtalk types would be so shoddy or as irresponsible to leave a watercourse choked up like that! You'd be far better off contacting the landowner. Could be wrong, but think it's an offence to knowingly block a watercourse. Good luck.
