- Additional Information
There are two water points on site which are for the use of berth holders only. Another water point is available on the nearby visitor moorings.
Access to the site is through a secured gate from the car park end of the site and along a stone chipped access track. Keys for the gate are available to mooring customers only. Keys cost £50 each and the cost will be refunded if the key is returned with a valid receipt.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Aire and Calder Main Line is a commercial waterway can be used by freight vessels as well as pleasure craft. Although the site is within a small layby and not directly on the main waterway, the larger freight traffic can cause some movement of the water space within the moorings as they pass. It is advised that you take adequate precautions by fitting fenders to your boat and securely tying off to the rings/bollards provided.
Some minimal storage is allowed on the mooring although all items must be stored in a well kept unit and on the grass strip between the drain and access road. All installations must be clarified with the Moorings Manager beforehand and permission MUST be granted. All fuel related items, such as diesel, gas, etc. must be stored on boats.
Mooring rings may be shared with neighbouring boats.
This is a leisure site and is determined by us to be a mooring site for the storage of boats between leisure use, customers may well spend weekends on this site, and occasionally longer periods, but it is not sold as, or intended to be suitable for long term residential use. This site does not have local authority planning consent for residential use, neither does it have the level of facilities and service expected of such a mooring. As such the offer that we have is only intended to meet the needs of a leisure boater.
