Rufford Top Lock L1 Leisure

Additional Information
A water point is available at Bridge 1 and is for the use of all boaters. The nearest Canal & River Trust facilities, including elsan, refuse and toilets, can be found at Burscough Bridge, approximately one mile away from the site. Car parking is not available at this site so mooring customers must make alternative arrangements. 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. What3Words: ///thatched.fondest.yourself What3Words: ///shaky.slurping.kingdom
