Hanham Lock Weir Entrance
Channel leading to the Weir
Durley Lane, Keynsham BS31, United Kingdom
Hanham Lock Weir Entrance is on the River Avon (Kennet and Avon Navigation) near to Manstone Cutting.
Early plans of what would become the River Avon (Kennet and Avon Navigation) were drawn up by Exuperius Picking Junior in 1816 but problems with Bradford Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Wesspool to Oldhampton canal at Newport, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Bernigo at Wycombe caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Eastcester instead. In his autobiography Henry Edwards writes of his experiences as a lock-keeper in the 1960s
