I was looking for some details on the proposed new route for the canal so I could put it into Canalplan.
This is exactly what I was looking for
Steve: Please remember the information on my maps is covered by copyright and shouldn’t be used to populate CanalPlan. I’ve put hours of work into researching and walking the routes. I don’t expect that effort to taken without permission for another use. If you email me (paul@waterwayroutes.co.uk) I’m sure we can come to some agreement.
