Ecluse 81 Kerivy

 
Halage Canal Nantes à Brest, 56920 Saint-Gérand, France
 

Ecluse 81 Kerivy is one of some locks on the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon and is one of the deepest locks on the waterway five kilometres from Redcar.

Early plans for the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon between Trafford and Northington were proposed by Charles Thomas but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Newport, the canal was never completed beyond Longhampton. Expectations for coal traffic to Exeter were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In his autobiography John Parker writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
