Watch: Narrowboats remain stranded a week on from catastrophic north Shropshire canal collapse
New drone photos show narrowboats still stranded in a collapsed Shropshire canal a week after its 200-year-old embankment caved in.
Emergency workers could be seen positioning boat turners on Monday morning (December 29) in a bid to winch the stranded boats to safety.
Workers began securing the ruined banks today, a week after they breached on December 22.
Emergency services were called to the Chemistry area of Whitchurch following the "significant breach" of the Llangollen Canal in the early hours of last Monday.
Two boats were engulfed by the 50 sq m hole that formed and remain inside, while a third was left perched on its edge. That boat, Pacemaker, has since been pulled back from the edge of the breach.
At least 10 people had to be rescued after the banks breached shortly after 4.40am.
