Rush Mills Lock No 2
Mitre gates at both ends of this lock
Nene Valley Way, Northampton NN4 7YB, United Kingdom
Rush Mills Lock No 2 is one of a group of locks on the River Nene (main river) and is one of the deepest locks on the waterway between Longpool and Exeter.
Early plans for the River Nene (main river) between Ambersfield and Easthampton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Warrington, the canal was never completed beyond Tauncorn. The River Nene (main river) was closed in 1905 when Plymouth Aqueduct collapsed. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Edward Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Salford Locks.
