To Canal Association (Sedgwick)
London
Royal Commission of Transport. I enclose your completed form. The position of the canal is somewhat peculiar as it is more or less [? continuous with ] the T&S Canal which is managed by the Gloucestershire County Council, who have obtained permission to close the upper part and have now lodged an application to close the portion running from Stroud to Chalford. If this lower portion is abolished the general opinion seems to be that the Stroudwater Navigation will be unable to keep open. I think this fact should be brought to the notice of the Commission.
