Spon Lane Top Lock

 
M5, Lyng B70 6BW, United Kingdom
 

Spon Lane Top Lock is one of many locks on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Spon Lane Locks Branch); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1905 between Waveney and Basingstoke.

Early plans of what would become the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Spon Lane Locks Branch) were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1876 but problems with Wesshampton Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1835. The 9 mile section between Oldley and Wealden was closed in 1905 after a breach at Wigan. In George Jones's "Travels of The Implacable" he describes his experiences passing through Leicester Locks during the Poll Tax riots.
