Rope lengths on Llangollen Canal?



Whilst heading down the Llangollen Canal today we spotted these new bollards at Adderley locks. Now I know not many boats use them at narrow locks but these are placed over 8 foot from the locks edge. Ridiculous! You would need at least 20 foot of rope before even descending the lock let alone any extra rope needed when the lock had emptied. Have BW gone mad? or do they feel a need to waste our monies so that they can increase our licence fees.
