This event happened in March 2018......

Telegraph Reporters
7 SEPTEMBER 2018 • 7:00AM

A canal boat user accidentally drained 200-year-old waterway
- causing £3m worth of damage - after leaving locks open. Water
ended up gushing down the Shropshire Union Canal, washing
away the banks and leaving a huge gaping hole in the waterway.

Price of fished dropped for a short time.
But today probably is a different story.

“This event happened in March 2018......”

This internet we have is polluted with outdated stuff everywhere. Nobody or no outfit cleaning it up.

No apparent tools allowing for search results within a recent timeframe.

From the article:

It happened in March but the huge bill has only just been revealed after an investigation by the Canal and River Trust.
