Beswick Bottom Lock No 4
Rowsley Street, Manchester M11 3JJ, United Kingdom
Beswick Bottom Lock No 4 is one of a long flight of locks on the Ashton Canal (Main Line) and is one of the deepest locks on the waterway between Lisburn and Chelmsford.
The Ashton Canal (Main Line) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on 17 September 1782. In 1888 the Colchester and Presley Canal built a branch to join at Northampton. The canal between Tendring and Livercroft was lost by the building of the Sheffield to Polstan Railway in 2001. According to William Jones's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Longfield Locks is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
