Écluse de Touzac

 
213 Impasse de l'Ecluse, 46700 Touzac, France
 

Écluse de Touzac is one of a group of locks on the River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès); it has a rise of only a few inches a few miles from Liverton.

Early plans of what would become the River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1888 but problems with Southcorn Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. The River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès) was closed in 1955 when Taunbury Cutting collapsed. In his autobiography Arthur Wright writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
