The Bude Canal

Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:38:43 +0100

Bude canal is unusual in that it starts from the harbour in Bude, with the first lock opening to the sea. The recent renovation of the lock gates means that once again ocean-going boats can be seen tied up in the bude canal basin.

How it all began

The coastal area at Bude has sand that is unusually rich in minerals, and the poor agricultural land of the locality was found to benefit considerably from application of the sand.

The second Camelot Golf Cup competition was held on the weekend of Friday 23rd & Saturday 24th April 2010. The competition, played on a beautiful Saturday morning over the Bude links, was made slightly more difficult with a gentle breeze which tested all of those who competed.

All eight competitors were keen to win but golf is difficult enough without trying to win! As the organiser, I joined the last group with Pauline Pullin and Owen Polden. Whilst I have played shots from most pRead More...
