Summary

Proposals for improving the summit being considered.
Please send the man you mentioned to view the galleries under the engine.
Stop gates on the summit level were replaced by grooves for stop planks.
The current shortage of water exceeds anything remembered here – the Stroud Canal is not navigable more than half its time.
