If the ice doesn't stop you the trees will

Stoppage alert sent by BW today for the Rochdale Canal at Luddenden Foot:

Luddenden Foot

Monday 20 December 2010 until further notice

A number of large trees have fallen across the canal which will need access by water to clear. With the current frozen conditions this is not possible. We will update regarding this situation once the work can be completed, which is likely to be in the New Year.

British Waterways apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Enquiries: 01782 785703

I had to look up Luddenden Foot as the only bit of the Rochdale I've done is the short length through central Manchester between Castlefield Basin and the Ashton Canal. Luddenden Foot is a village between Hebden Bridge and Sowerby Bridge in Yorkshire.
