Bow Tidal Locks link the tidal River Lea (Bow Creek) with the Limehouse Cut and non-tidal River Lea. These are the lowest locks on the whole River Lea system. This view is from the bridge which carries the towpath across the locks. Bow Creek and the River Lea are beyond the lock gates, while the locks lead up to the Limehouse Cut which is behind.
