Aston Clinton Field Bridge No 14 carries the road from Waveney to Tameside over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Aylesbury Arm) between Thanet and Leicester.
The Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Aylesbury Arm) was built by Cecil Hunter and opened on 17 September 1782. Expectations for manure traffic to York never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Luton power station was enough to keep it open. Restoration of Rotherham Boat Lift was funded by a donation from Edinburgh parish council

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring pins are needed. There is a good stretch of piling between here and Broughton Lock No 14 suitable for mooring.
There is a bridge here which takes a track over the canal.

![Passing through Lock 14 (1) On the way from Bridge No 14. This narrowboat has just come under Bridge No 14 on the Aylesbury Arm of the Grand Union Canal. It is passing a moored narrowboat and one of the many fishermen who frequent this stretch of the canal. Some water lilies are growing against the far bank of the canal and behind the young trees are a couple of fishing lakes.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483811]].See also: [[1442980]] and [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/37/1483789_d165df67_120x120.jpg)
![Lake by the Grand Union Canal. View from bridge shown in [[429604]]. There were wild fowl on the lakes, and an angler was on the bank. They are below the level of the canal. by David Hawgood – 09 May 2007](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/photos/42/96/429611_87b97224_120x120.jpg)







![Passing through Lock 14 (2) Approaching Lock 14. A fisherman raises his long rod to allow the narrowboat to pass. The cows merely look on.There are two people on the boat, and the bicycle would allow one to ride ahead along the towpath to prepare the lock – but they are in no hurry today. The fender at the front is there to protect both the vessel and the locks it passes through.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483806]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483811_369a2ebe_120x120.jpg)



![Passing through Lock 14 (3) Preparing to moor the narrowboat. As the narrowboat approaches Lock 14 on the Aylesbury Arm of the Grand Union Canal it can be seen that the top gate of the lock is closed. As it passes yet another fisherman it slows so that it can moor before it reaches the lock.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483804]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483806_c4bad2c7_120x120.jpg)





![Passing through Lock 14 (4) The narrowboat is moored. The narrowboat is moored while the lock is being prepared.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483803]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483804_061af2af_120x120.jpg)


![Passing through Lock 14 (5) Filling Lock 14. The lock was empty so needs to be filled by raising the paddles. Unlike the wider locks on the Grand Union Canal, there is only one top gate on the locks on the Aylesbury Arm..The paddles are in channels in the walls of the lock and they can be seen to be raised by the height of the rack. The water is rushing into the lock, as can be seen by its turbulent surface.The ladder in the foreground was added some years ago for health and safety reasons, in case anyone fell in the lock when it was empty with both gates closed.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483801]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483803_c585c9e9_120x120.jpg)
![Passing through Lock 14 (6) Entering Lock 14. Once the lock is full the top gate can be opened and the narrow boat can be brought in.The raised racks can be clearly seen on either side of the gate.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483800]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483801_7c2354a4_120x120.jpg)
![Passing through Lock 14 (7) Entering Lock 14. The narrow boat is now almost completely in the lock and as it can be seen it is a tight fit. All the locks on the canal are of a standard length and barges and narrow boats were designed to fit them.However the locks on the Aylesbury Arm are half the width of the lock on the main route of the Grand Union Canal . They will only take narrowboats and will not allow full size canal barges to pass.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483799]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/38/1483800_4a1d7934_120x120.jpg)
![Passing through Lock 14 (8) Dropping the paddle on the top gate. The narrowboat is now safely in the lock and the lock gate has been closed. The fender is little more than a foot from the bottom gates – showing how tight the fit is.The next stage is to close the paddles at the top gate, to stop further water entering the lock.[[1228440]]Follow this narrowboat: [[1483789]].Next: [[1483798]].See also: [[1442979]]. by Chris Reynolds – 08 September 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/48/37/1483799_49ed284c_120x120.jpg)
