Derelict canal lock at Combe Hay

A named place photographed at this map point in Bath and North East Somerset.

Derelict canal lock at Combe Hay was part of the Somerset Coal Canal, constructed in the late 18th century to transport coal from the Brendon Hills to Bristol. The lock is a remnant of the canal system that played a key role in the region's industrial development, though the canal fell into disuse in the 19th century.
