Our historic canal routes have a network of small (sometimes tiny) buildings, from lock keeper’s huts to toll houses and stables.
A lot of these are put to good use as stores and visitor information points, but a significant number are unfortunately redundant.
Having had a narrowboat as an office space for a number of years I started to become a bit obsessed with them! A conversation with a Canal & River Trust heritage advisor at a networking event led to BB Heritage Studio undertaking a study into how these could be reused.
