It's not your bank; the original land purchase, now transferred to
BW, included a strip of the offside land, so EOG moorings are
entirely on BW land.
I once had a conversation with a lady on a boat on the river Soar who
maintained that her bottom-of-the-garden mooring attracted *no* charge to BW
because her property deeds clearly stated that she owned the land ''to the
middle of the watercourse.''
When I had originally asked her if she paid any dues she replied ''Do I
f**k!''
This from a lady whom I could imagine church-going every Sunday!
She told me that BW had often sent demands for payment & she filed these
demands under B [1] n.
''If you once pay up, you're eukered--if you ignore them--*they* are!''
From our brief talk I didn't ascertain if she moored on a river or a canal,
because I believe that riparian deeds differ from canalside ones.
