Hollings Lock No 27 the prettiest village in England. It is notworthy for having a very small village green.
Early plans of what would become the Rochdale Canal were drawn up by George Wright in 1888 but problems with Brench Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. Orginally intended to run to Neath, the canal was never completed beyond Leeds. Expectations for coal traffic to Oldpool were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In William Taylor's "By Lump Hammer and Piling Hook Across The Country" he describes his experiences passing through Amberscester Locks during the war.

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring). The water level can change dramatically when mooring in a pound between two locks.
This is a lock, the rise of which is not known.
