Is it possible to paddle from Driffield through to North Frodingham, if there is any obstacles is it possible to walk around.

Do you need any permits to do this.

Thanks Len I and my group of

Thanks Len I and my group of friends will be looking forward to tackling it,especially as there is an icecream shop at the end, we wouldn't be entering the locks anyway from a safety point of view.

Can we also use the landing stage at the pub in Wansford or is it a private landing stage.

Do you know if you can paddle back down the adjacent river from the last lock near Wansford as this would make a nice circular paddle back to Frodingham, I've spoken to the house owner who said he wouldn't object for us to cross the land from the lock o the river but he felt that to paddle the river was discouraged!

i would think you would get a ticking off for paddling back up west beck from wansford as its a VERY exclusive trout fishing stream . and the owners get upset if anyone gets anywere near corpse landing which is down stream about a mile, reachable from bethels bridge . . . thats only a pike anglers veiw dont take it as gospel . .

west beck

apparenly you could be shot at dawn for paddling the river you asked about it is a trout fishery and has a couple of wiers on it i should stick to the water you went out to driffield on, Any way well done you have caused some interest and provoked a response
