The lock is to the right in the distance and is on the Kennet in Newbury. To the left is the river which over flows from the canal via a weir further up from the lock.

What a beautiful place! I've never seen such a small lock. The locks on our local rivers are huge--to allow tugs and barges to make passage. Wonderful! :-) Nice "L" post. :-)
ReplyDeleteNarrowboats used the Canals but they are a bit bigger when you are near them. The photo was taken with a cameraphone not my usual camera I take with me.
DeleteI would be interested in the history of the lock and the types of boats that use it. I assume that it has been there a long time?
