Additional comments
The chapter "Glastonbury Canals" in Abandoned & Vanished Canals of England, ISBN 9781445639161, is a direct lift of this article.[1] Luckily your article, substantially complete by 2009, appeared long before the book's publication on 15 June 2014.
Yes in so far as the Brue went past (to the west of) Meare pool; as yet I have seen no statement that it was connected to Meare pool - the latter appears to have been confined to the supplying and processing of fish.Pyrotec (talk) 08:28, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Take a look at page 73 of this book, which features a nice diagram showing drainage of the levels in medieval times. It clearly shows Meare Pool as being a long way from the canal, but linked by the river network. --TimTay (talk) 08:49, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that. I bought the book when it first came out. I was looking at Fig 43 on page 217, the Pilrow seems to have been extended to the south east in Fig 43.Pyrotec (talk) 18:00, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
