IT appears that many people in the county are looking forward to seeing boats on the River Wye in Hereford.

We announced last week how those behind the Left Bank were set to bring leisure boats to the Wye in Hereford, offering their use for weddings and free school trips as well as public use.

And in this week's online poll, we asked whether people would use the leisure boats when the scheme is launched.

A total of 861 people took part, with 77 per cent saying they would definitely support a scheme which would see the river in Hereford being regularly used.

However, 12 per cent said they did not think they would use the boats while the remaining 11 per cent said they might – perhaps when they had visitors in the area.
