NEWS. . .
Although the Grand Western Canal suffered a large Breach in 2012 there is still plenty of water in the canal either side of the breach site, allowing businesses like the Horse-Drawn Barge to continue trading without being affected at all.
Allowing you to book in confidence for 2013. The Horse-Drawn Barge, Boat Hire, Ducks Ditty Cafe Bar, Canal Side Gift Shop & NEW Canal visitors centre. All "OPEN" and operating as normal.
Devon County Council has now pledged £3 million for the repair of the breach site in time for the canal's bicentenary celebrations. 2014 is also the year that the Horse-Drawn Barge celebrates 40 years since its start-up July 1974.
