The EA are working on the collapsed weir (some times know as Dentist Weir) just before the monitoring station. Portage left early as there is lots of debris in the water including iron bars. Work also ongoing on the salmon leap.

The EA are working at Horrabridge weir and its totally blocked with plastic tunnels in the water making a temp platform for a digger. A new salmon leap is under construction and there are large bags of stone in the water above the weir. Portage left into the park and stay well clear.

Just Paddled the Walkham, about 200m down the river from Bedford bridge there is a tree blocking the river, if levels are low you might be able to squeeze past on the left (and i mean squeeze). The river is also still totally blocked at Magpie bridge (also known as Gem bridge), no exit right due to ...

Its the new cycle bridge put in to replace the old railway bridge that was demolished 50+ years ago. Its links the Drakes trail Yelveton to Tavistock cycle path. Situated between Magpie Bridge and Grenofen Bridge.

River Walkham completely blocked at Gem Bridge. Only exit river left as low barbed wire fence on the right.

I have been paddling for over ...

Its OK i know the rules, as i said there is very little on TV really worth devoting my time to anyway....

I understand what Janet is saying but you can't give a full safety brief every time the BBC shows some sort of sport, at least they had the correct gear on. I live in west Devon and spend a lot of time exploring its coast climbing and by kayak. Over the past few years with the increase in sit on top...
