Oops!!

Hi, I'm new here ( coming to find lots of info before our 1st Broads holiday next summer) but used to own a narrow boat. I'm sure that this may not be relevant at all, but landowners by the non towpath side of a canal can have a "bottom of garden" mooring and landowners can rent out moorings on the edge of their land - typically farmers fields - but British waterways - now the canal and river trust are deemed to own the edge of the canal bank and consequently the garden or field owner have to pay a fee to CRT, typically half of what a commercial mooring would cost in the location would be charged by CTR. Does the broads authority "own" the 1st inch of the river bank?
