  We discuss a high resolution (FWHM~ 0.45 arcsec) image of the emissive
polarization from warm dust in the minispiral in the Galactic Centre and
discuss the implications for the magnetic field in the dusty filaments. The
image was obtained at a wavelength of 12.5 microns with the CanariCam multimode
mid-infrared imager on the Gran Telescopio Canarias. It confirms the results
obtained from previous observations but also reveals new details of the
polarization structures. In particular, we identify regions of coherent
magnetic field emission at position angles of ~45 deg to the predominantly
north--south run of field lines in the Northern Arm which may be related to
orbital motions inclined to the general flow of the Northern Arm. The luminous
stars that have been identified as bow-shock sources in the Northern Arm do not
disrupt or dilute the field but are linked by a coherent field structure,
implying that the winds from these objects may push and compress the field but
do not overwhelm it. The magnetic field in the the low surface brightness
regions in the East-West Bar to the south of SgrA* lies along the Bar, but the
brighter regions generally have different polarization position angles,
suggesting that they are distinct structures. In the region of the Northern Arm
sampled here, there is only a weak correlation between the intensity of the
emission and the degree of polarization. This is consistent with saturated
grain alignment where the degree of polarization depends on geometric effects,
including the angle of inclination of the field to the line of sight and
superposition of filaments with different field directions, rather than the
alignment efficiency.
