Navigable 2013
Also known as: Dudbridge Upper Lock
Marling School, Beards Lane, Rodborough GL5 4HE, United Kingdom
 

Foundry Lock No 1 is one of many locks on the Cotswold Canals (Stroudwater Navigation - Isolated Navigable Section); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1955 between Norwich and Dover.

Early plans for the Cotswold Canals (Stroudwater Navigation - Isolated Navigable Section) between Barnsley and Bernigo were proposed by Henry Thomas but languished until James Brindley was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. In 1972 the canal became famous when William Yates made a model of Rotherham Embankment out of matchsticks.
