Additional information

One of the deepest locks on the system.
This is either the last (if you are heading towards Willington) or first (if you are heading towards Derwent Mouth on the Trent and Mersey) wide locks and is from time to time staffed by volunteer lock keepers.
It is well worth waiting for a companion boat to share with and using a line to the rear, particularly if going up as even with gate paddle deflectors the inrush of water causes significant currents.
