Minworth Top Lock

This is the top lock of the flight of three at Minworth. Although the setting is urban, this location has all the classic canal scene ingredients including the narrow lock itself and the associated lock cottage. Mooring bollards are normally provided immediately above and below locks to allow boaters to tie up while preparing the lock.
