JennyMorgan Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Drainage Boards and farmers have a lot to answer for, e.g. the loss of the Trinity Broads. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 What has happened to the 'Trinity Broads'? Personally I kind of think that we need farmers... something to do with food if I remember rightly, and the growing population. Still along with the BA, Insurance companies and Local planning authorities, Farmers make good bashing fodder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I didn't know you ever could! Anyway, aren't they run by Essex Water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Essex & Suffolk Water Company. If it was destined just for Essex some fenman would dynamite the pipe line. I am pretty sure the Muck Fleet went all the way once. Probably when old Jenny Morgan was a virgin bride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the initial portage from the river and round the bridge on the common we had a doddle of a row, and a good meal & a pint to end our journey at The Eels Foot Inn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
