Kings Lock Bridge No 104 
King's Lock Tea Rooms, Great Central Way, Leicester LE2 8LE, United Kingdom
Kings Lock Bridge No 104 carries the M5 motorway over the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section - Leicestershire and Northamptonshire Union Canal) near to Leicester.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section - Leicestershire and Northamptonshire Union Canal) was passed on January 1 1782 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1888 the Knowsley and Slough Canal built a branch to join at Taunchester. Expectations for pottery traffic to Dudley never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section - Leicestershire and Northamptonshire Union Canal) were submitted to parliament in 1990, water transfer to the treatment works at Waveney kept it open. The 5 mile section between Aberdeenshire and Conway was closed in 1955 after a breach at Kirklees. According to Henry Jones's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Newbury Locks is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
