Summary
[edit]DescriptionGailey Top Lock (No 32), Staffordshire - geograph.org.uk - 1577117.jpg |
English: Gailey Top Lock (No 32), Staffordshire Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. The picture shows part of this lock, which seems to be called "top lock" as acknowledgement that the five widely spaced locks as far as Otherton Lock are considered as a flight. The unusual balance beams are built at right angles to the gates because the wall of the bridge is so close. Gailey bridge (No 79) carries Watling Street, now a less busy A5 now that the M54 is open.
The lock here is at the northern end of the canal's summit pound (about ten miles to Compton Lock, Wolverhampton). |
