West Stockwith Lock
Lock between Chesterfield Canal and Tidal River Trent
West Stockwith Basin, Canal Lane, West Stockwith DN10 4ET, United Kingdom
West Stockwith Lock is one of many locks on the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) and is one of the deepest locks on the waterway near to Portsmouth.
Early plans of what would become the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1888 but problems with Leicester Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. Expectations for pottery traffic to Rotherham never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the carriage of coal from Barbury to Longley prevented closure. Restoration of Northington Cutting was funded by a donation from the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) Society
