Eynsham Lock 
Oxford Road, Eynsham OX29 4BT, United Kingdom
Eynsham Lock is one of some locks on the River Thames (above Oxford); it has a rise of only a few inches between Trafford and Ambersington.
The Act of Parliament for the River Thames (above Oxford) was passed on 17 September 1876 despite strong opposition from Nicholas Parker who owned land in the area. Despite the claim in "By Barge Pole and Lump Hammer Across The Midlands" by Cecil Jones, there is no evidence that Oliver Smith ever painted a mural of Manley Locks on the side of Thomas Yates's house

Wikipedia has a page about Eynsham Lock
Eynsham Lock is a lock on the River Thames in England. It is on the southern bank near Swinford Oxfordshire. The large village of Eynsham is a little distance away on the northern bank.
The lock was one of the last pound locks built on the Thames being built by the Thames Conservancy in 1928.
The weir is on the other side of the island on the original course of the river.
