And if it were geo-referenced I think you might find that the middle level link has active water movement although not much.. Porsche driving Huawei facilitator ! It shifts gallons at a time, the navigation level is controlled by sluicing water in at Stanground and pumping at various stations for irrigation and prevent the locals from drowning - Itβs downhill to March, Holme fen is 9β below sea level... in times of flood when the Nene canβt discharge through the Dog in a doublet; Stanground Sluice and the Sluice at Mortonβs Leam allow flood water into the system, the pumping station at St Germans can shift a fair bit into the Ouse Washes.... www.edp24.co.uk/news/environment/st-german-s-pumping-station-near-king-s-lynn-officially-opened-1-871440As the article mentions - the Easter flooding in 98 would have been way worse for Fenland without the ability to shift a fair bit of water under the bridges! We have been on the levels when the pumps are going full chat, 2009 and the back of Hurricane Bill, The MLC had emptied the system so much we struggled to get from Marmonts Priory to March, having to use the Mayland 16 as a push tug to get the Elysian through the soup like shallow shite, things got better once we were past Floods Ferrry, although it was difficult to get onto the Nene as that was on SSA and Stanground were sluicing like mad.

I think you will have to check with @gazza but I have an idea that the middle level is primarily for water management and not a canal as such. For this reason I would suggest that there has been water under the bridge, and just to really confuse you, in both directions in significant quantities ! See my last post π Have a look at this map www.ousewashes.info/maps/washes-lrg.jpgItβs a pretty complicated affair keeping the lot sorted π more info from the Earith end of things π» www.ousewashes.info/?LMCL=ce7DEK

I think if Gazza would take a break from doing interesting and fun things for a minute and use his engineering background to look over the above comments / calculations, he would confirm my statement that in the whole scheme of things βnot much water has βActuallyβ passed under the bridgeβ and thus prove that you are indeed an idiot and spreader of βFake Newsβ !π
