Derelict lock, West Stow
Stow Lock of the River Lark, number 8 counting from Bury St Edmunds, which was once the head of navigation. The river as a navigation had a great many ups and downs over the years, very largely downs. It was last restored to complete navigation in 1894, and promptly fell into disuse apart from a short lower section. This was because the navigation company went bust and, well into the railway age, nobody wanted to use it. This view is looking upstream. The locks were 88 ft long and of a width to fit a fen lighter, around 10'-6" wide. The length was to allow two 42 ft long lighters to lock at once, a gang of two being the usual arrangement.
