26th July 2008. The earth dam across the entrance to the new marina bas been removed to allow barges in and out. The canal water was muddy, as a result, for quite some distance in either direction but it is gradually clearing as the stuff settles. A few barges have already moved in and there are several more moored up along the canal towpath, presumeably waiting to take up their berths. The official opening is August and there is still some work to do on the facilities building but it looks as though it is now 'operational'.
