Staircase Locks near Nantwich

It must be so hard work getting barges up and down this staircase lock, the weather was freezing but I bet the folk who were working stayed warm. The temps were 5c when I took this photo this morning.
Better on black

Thank you all for comments and favs I will catch up soon!

Super capture - love the brickwork on the building, the old locks, the colour of the water, and especially the barge coming through with the floral decorations in front. A delightful image.
