Grafton Lock is one of a long flight of locks on the River Thames (above Oxford) and unusually has only single top and bottom gates near to Chelmsford Embankment.
The Act of Parliament for the River Thames (above Oxford) was passed on 17 September 1876 despite strong opposition from Nicholas Parker who owned land in the area. Despite the claim in "By Barge Pole and Lump Hammer Across The Midlands" by Cecil Jones, there is no evidence that Oliver Smith ever painted a mural of Manley Locks on the side of Thomas Yates's house
