Field Locks




In March, before the lockdown was fully imposed, I took a walk along the Leeds-Liverpool Canal from Saltaire in the direction of Leeds. After Hirst Lock in Saltaire it is a walk of three miles or so to the next set of locks, Field Locks. These are an impressive staircase of three locks in an attractive setting, with woodland on either side.

  1. I understand that getting a boat through the locks is a lot of hard work - hard work never looked so pretty!

  2. Beautiful. I wonder if boats are still going anywhere.

  3. Even then there were not many people around, Jenny!

  4. Sadly at present the CRT has decreed no boats may move, except for those living aboard who may cruise their boat to the nearest water point.
