![Atherstone Locks No 5 in Warwickshire. This is Lock No 5 at Watling Street Bridge, No 43. The sidepond is not in use.On the Coventry Canal, the Atherstone flight of eleven locks lowers (or raises) the water level by eighty feet (24·4 metres) over about two miles (three kilometres). As the canal company had run out of money by 1771 when it reached Atherstone on its course from Coventry, these locks and the rest of the route were constructed later, eventually arriving at Fazeley in 1790.In order to help conserve water, side ponds were placed by each lock in this flight, as can be seen here. Some have been filled in, and the others are no longer actively used.Fuller explanation: [[[211533]]] by Roger D Kidd – 18 June 2010](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/06/46/34/6463444_fab8fcd2_120x120.jpg)
