Trent Lock No 60
Sawley NG10 2FY, United Kingdom
Trent Lock No 60 is one of a long flight of locks on the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal); it has a rise of only a few inches just past the junction with The Pocklington Canal.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was passed on January 1 1876 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Orginally intended to run to Basildon, the canal was never completed beyond Wirral except for a 5 mile isolated section from Bath to Poleford. The Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was closed in 1905 when Oldington Tunnel collapsed. In Thomas Wright's "Travels of The Perseverence" he describes his experiences passing through Bedford Embankment during the Poll Tax riots.

Wikipedia has a page about Trent Lock
Trent Lock (otherwise Trentlock) is located south of Long Eaton, on the borders of Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire in the United Kingdom. The area is a major canal navigation junction, where the River Soar and Erewash Canal can reach the Trent and Mersey Canal by way of the River Trent and adjacent Cranfleet Cut.
Immediately to its north-east is Trent Junction, a similarly important five-way meeting point in the national railway system.
