Westfield (John Robinson) Lock
Westfield Lock starts to emerge from over 50 years of infill. Although the top metre of height in the walls is missing, everything else seem to be there, including all of the coping stones. Contrary to popular belief, the lock appears to have been destroyed in part by excavator, rather than being blown up with explosives. Work will be carried out during 2023 by volunteers from the Waterway Recovery Group.

Westfield Lock
The dig out underway, with the cill beginning to emerge. Westfield Bridge is in the background. This lock will be known as John Robinson Lock in future, after a generous bequest from the Robinson family. More digging will take place in 2023.

Westfield Bridge & Lock Site
The Stroudwater Canal west of here has been infilled and the line largely obliterated by the construction of the M5 motorway and the Stroudwater junction. Restoration of the canal is likely to involve a diversion to the south using the River Frome.

Dock Lock
A snappily named lock, presumably due to the adjacent dry dock and the Canal Company's yard on the offside.
