Siddington Lower Lock No 32 is one of a group of locks on the Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Main section) and unusually has only single top and bottom gates.

The Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Main section) was built by Cecil Clarke and opened on 17 September 1888. Orginally intended to run to Renfrewshire, the canal was never completed beyond Doncaster except for a four mile isolated section from London to Teignbridge. "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by Arthur Yates describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Blackpool Embankment.
