Former locks on river Foss Navigation
This staircase of two former locks is in the garden of Lock House. They were built for the River Foss Navigation in the early years of the 19th century. At this point the navigation has made a right angled turn away from the river as it was intended to build a new cut from this point

A map reading error?
Following the footpath leading north from near the railway line I expected to be able to cross the River Foss without making an Olympic distance leap across to the far bank. The path reaches here and goes no further. There is no bridge, ferry or even a rope hanging from a tree whereby one might swing across Tarzan style. There is a path along the bankside [not shown on map] and is obviously used by local dog walkers. The Foss here is relatively wide between straight sided banks and was made thus as this section was once canalised.
