Around Over Basin
Since the completion of the main basin structure the volunteers at Over have not put their feet up.

 

The service huts and ducting
Two small service huts have been built along the wharf wall. These are in readiness to supply water and electricity to any boats that will be moored there. Ducting to the huts was laid as the banks around the basin were being landscaped.

 

Further ducting was laid through the main work compound to the site huts and further along the towpath to the main pump shaft.

 

Landscaping
Hedges and trees have been planted all around the site. Many of the more sizable trees have been sponsored by friends of the Trust. A ‘mill race’ has been excavated along the original line that led to the flour mill that stood nearby many years ago. It has become a haven for wildlife.
