Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Lapworth Locks No 11 at Kingswood, Warwickshire A boat is entering the lock from below, but that chap prefers to walk round via the top gate in order to open the second bottom gate. The design of some gates assists the dubious practice of straddling the gap - best not to on on a damp day. The view is from by the next lock up (No 10)
There are twenty-six locks in the Lapworth flight on the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal. Together they change the water level by 158ft 6in (about 52 metres) over about two and a half miles... and there are more locks at regular intervals south of those! However, navigating from top to bottom of the flight will only involve passing through twenty-five locks, because Nos 20 and 21 are paired, the former being on the bypass towards the quarter mile link to the Grand Union Canal. |
