Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Eye Kettleby Lock. On the former Melton Mowbray Navigation. This closed to navigation as far back as August 1877 as a result of competition from the railways, but a society does exist which is looking to reopen the navigation, including the connecting Oakham Canal http://www.waterways-society.co.uk/

The lock appears to have had normal gates at the lower end but guillotine gates at the upper end.
