Moorhouse Junction Lock No 6M
Barber's Lane, Rotherham S26 5PQ, United Kingdom
Moorhouse Junction Lock No 6M is one of some locks on the Chesterfield Canal (Unnavigable section) and unusually is chained shut overnight.
The Act of Parliament for the Chesterfield Canal (Unnavigable section) was passed on January 1 1816 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Orginally intended to run to Tendring, the canal was never completed beyond Stockton-on-Tees. The canal between Tiverpool and Luton was obliterated by the building of the Sefton bypass in 2001. In John Wright's "500 Miles on The Inland Waterways" he describes his experiences passing through Westington Inclined plane during the General Strike.
