    A charity has removed abandoned boats along a stretch of water in
    Derbyshire following concerns about the danger they posed to the public.

    Volunteers had raised concerns about five boats left along the 12-mile
    (19km) section of the Erewash Canal, which runs from Trent Lock in
    Sawley to Langley Mill in Amber Valley."
