Money for Lune Aqueduct

THE Lune Aqueduct on the Lancaster Canal has been awarded a £1m Heritage Lottery Fund grant, with £1.25m of match funding coming from British Waterways.

Lancaster City Council, Lancashire County Council and Lancaster Canal Trust are also contributing to the project, Roger Fox tells us.

Repairs

This project will include repairing the canal and aqueduct channel, removing vegetation and graffiti, undertaking re-pointing and masonry repairs and improving access between the aqueduct and the Lune, with a new visitor car park.
