What is recorded here
Single-stage canal lock, c.1780, with coursed limestone walls, rendered between gates, having limestone coping. Timber and iron lock gates to either end. Timber mooring post at intervals between gates.
A standard-type canal lock retaining original materials and finishes. It adds a welcome historical dimension to the rapidly developing vicinity, and is a valuable element of the overall canal group.
