Low Impact & sustainable redevelopment
Phase 1
Moorings
We have created, low impact sustainable moorings in the heart of Wolverhampton.
The site has been cleared of rubbish, landscaped, moorings built and services added for Moorer's and visiting narrowboats.
Phase 2
Canalside
The Canalside at the stop lock is overgrown and buildings derelict. We will transform the area into a garden with café and maker spaces, artist studios and the old Toll house will become a exhibition space.
Phase 3
The Boat House
The boat house once serviced and maintained the 'amptons. Narrowboats which shipped coal and lime to the local foundries. We will bring it back into use as a working boat house, for maintenance of narrowboats and our trip boat.
