Trent and Mersey Canal, Lock 52
Lock 52 is the lower of the Lawton Treble Locks. These were built by Telford to replace a Brindley staircase which was both time consuming and wasteful of water.

Lawton Bottom Locks near Lawton-gate, Cheshire
This is Lock No 52, the bottom of the three paired locks near Lawton-gate, Cheshire. The locks were originally single, built by James Brindley in the mid 1770s (the left one, about to be used by the narrowboat). In order to speed traffic along in the 1830s Thomas Telford supervised pairing of most of the locks between Hardings Wood and Wheelock. Today, some are in need of repair, and some have been filled in. Here they are both in use.
The variable rusty water colour is due to the water flowing through the iron bearing rock in Brindley's original Harecastle Tunnel.

Lawton Treble Locks near Lawton-gate, Cheshire
This is the northern and later chamber (circa 1830) of the pair No 52 at the bottom of the Lawton Treble set. Originally James Brindley built single locks (circa 1776) all the way on the Trent and Mersey Canal. Later, Thomas Telford supervised pairing of most of the Cheshire Locks from Kidsgrove to Wheelock in order to speed up traffic. Strange that the Pierpoint Locks were missed out of this development. Here, both are still in use. In other venues, some locks are inoperative (awaiting restoration) or filled in.
