This message has been posted on Facebook by the owner of Llanthomas Fishery (downstream of the Hollybush Inn), Geoff Maynard:
“All Canoe Operators and paddlers: Please be very aware if paddling Glasbury to Hay – the recent floods have exposed fresh very large concrete rubble with steel reinforcing rods sticking out – these are akin to tank-traps for canoes and kayaks. They are potentially very dangerous with the water at its current height and are in the middle of the river, by the sand martin cliffs at Llanthomas. Keep clear! Please forward to any other canoe users in the area.”
