Richmond Half Tide Lock
Richmond's Half Tide Lock opened in 1894. For two hours after the passage of the tide the sluice gates underneath are lowered to block the river. This maintains the water level at a height which enables navigation up to Teddington Lock three miles upstream.
This provided navigable water all hours of the day and meant a yacht club, based on the reach, could be sustained

River Thames: Richmond Lock & Footbridge
Richmond Lock is a halftide lock and barrage that also incorporates a public footbridge. The barrage is formed of three vertical sluice gates suspended from the footbridge superstructure. Apart from periods about two hours either side of high tide, the sluice gates are closed and boats have to use the conventional lock on the right side of the photo. Around high tide the sluice gates are raised into the footbridge superstructure and boats can pass through unimpeded. The lock is the most downstream on the River Thames and is the only one to be operated by the Port of London Authority.

Richmond Lock and half-tide barrier
The level of The Thames between Teddington Lock and Richmond Lock is kept at or above half-tide level by this barrier. Above half-tide the barrier is lowered and boats can pass over it. Below half-tide, as in the photo, the barrier is raised and boats have to use the lock.
