What is recorded here
Single-stage canal lock, c.1770. Lock gates are of timber and iron construction with coursed granite inner walls. Painted timber mooring post at intervals between gates.
A good example of a standard-type eighteenth-century canal lock, enhanced by its setting among such a rich group of canal structures.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
