Woolhampton Mill Lock No 94
Woolhampton village 200 yards north.
Angel Mead, Woolhampton RG7 5SJ, United Kingdom
Woolhampton Mill Lock No 94 is one of a group of locks on the River Kennet and unusually is chained shut overnight just past the junction with The Exeter Ship Canal.
Early plans for the River Kennet between Willworth and Bournemouth were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until James Brindley was appointed as engineer in 1816. In 1955 the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Polestone Canal built a branch to join at Bury. Expectations for pottery traffic to Polstan never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between St Helens and Portsmouth was lost by the building of the M8 Motorway in 1972. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by the River Kennet Society.
