Review of Pocklington Canal

Date of visit: August 2022
I have experience of challenges around: moving around and speaking or communicating.
Overall Rating
Poor
Accessing the canalside from Melbourne village (near the Melbourne Arms) was relatively good. Once there the path was quite narrow and rough, suitable only for all-terrain wheelchairs. You can get quite a long way towards Pocklington but on the day we went it was 31C and akin to being in a tumble drier! I couldn't see much, as being summer the vegetation was too tall. Highlight: enjoying a cold drink and ice cream sitting at the front of The Melbourne Arms. Downside: No wheelchair accessible disabled toilets in the vicinity.
