Weir Visit from Westcountry Rivers Trust

Adrian Dowding from the Westcountry Rivers Trust visited the weir yesterday and is very hopeful that we can secure the appropriate funding to fix the damage using ecologically sound technologies that allow the migration of multiple species in the river.  This will be an improvement on the previous structure which made it difficult for some species to cross the weir during the lower flow months in the summer.  Will keep you posted.

Repairing Rotted Frames

With the help of a cherry-picker, we have finished repairs and repainted all the window frames on the mill and the house. Also managed to clear off the loose moss on the front roof of the house (the rear is proving trickier!).
