Marple Locks No 3 east of Stockport
Marple Locks No 3, looking north-west towards Stockport and Manchester.
The Marple flight on the Peak Forest Canal consists of sixteen deep locks in a mile. The total fall (or rise) provided is 209ft 6in (almost 64 metres). The canal was opened to navigation by 1796 but not enough money remained to build these locks. A temporary tramway was installed and used until 1804, when the locks were completed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marple_Lock_Flight
