lock after lock after lock

You need to be fit to navigate this stretch of the canal. There are 21 locks over 2 miles but the majority are on this part. Lovely walk along the towpath on a cold crisp and sunny winter morning

Great shots of the locks

Caen Hill in Devizes Wiltshire by any chance ?

[Olwynne]

@phil_sandford - no! this is Hatton Locks, Warwick. I must try and get to Caen Hill. I've heard that the locks there will rival these!

Hi Olwynne - what an amzing system you have shown here. I'm assuming from the handles that If you are in a boat you have to get out and open the lock manually...

[Olwynne]

@robz Absolutely. It's not for the faint hearted but it does make for a slow, peaceful way of life. A week on a narrowboat / barge is about as much as I could manage!

Wonderful weather for a walk along the towpath. Lovely collage

I remember locks as these

[Rob Z]

Lol - what a good way to not get fat on a holiday! I think it would indeed be fun - but, as you said, for a short holiday.

A nice shot of all locks

Irt must take ages to navigate your way through this lot.

Looks very complicated.

Interesting shot.

Wow, that;s amazing

[Diana]

Beautiful shots of these lovely scenes. I used to loave our boat trips in France and was always fascinated by the locks.

[John Falconer]

Sounds too arduous for me. You’ve captured it well here.

[Linda Godwin]

What an effort to get through there, amazing.
