Haddlesey Old Lock
Closed and derelict, and no access beyond the boom south of the Haddlesey Road Bridge (A19 )
Chapel Haddlesey YO8 8QQ, United Kingdom
Haddlesey Old Lock is one of a long flight of locks on the Aire and Calder Navigation (River Aire); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1955 near to Sumerlease Aqueduct.
Early plans of what would become the Aire and Calder Navigation (River Aire) were drawn up by Hugh Henshall in 1888 but problems with Cheltenham Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. From a junction with The Driffield Navigation at Rochester the canal ran for 23 miles to Cardiff. Despite the claim in "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by Henry Green, there is no evidence that George Jones ever swam through Westworth Tunnel in 17 minutes for a bet
