Historical Lock now largely redundant that still retains a fair proportion of dated construct and fabric including stables, converted Lock-keeper’s cottages and shady trees aside the pathway. A new residential development by the canal hardly detracts from the glint of residual mystique that still lingers hereabout.

Nice place to chill with drinks and company just jump the border or use tiny gate to enter a close to the edge as possible and enjoy the flowing water.

I visited here in April 2022 as part of walking the Capital Ring route. This is a lock on the River Lea and is near the former Olympic Park.
