Écluse de Escambous
Écluse de Escambous is one of many locks on the River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès); it has a rise of only a few inches just past the junction with The River London Navigation.
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
This is a lock with a rise of 0 Feet 9 (0.24m).
