Channel leading to the Weir
Jones Boatyard, Harrison Way, St Ives PE27 5GF, United Kingdom
 

St Ives Lock Weir Exit is on the River Great Ouse (Canalized Section) near to Amberschester Boat Lift.

Early plans for the River Great Ouse (Canalized Section) between Birmingham and Sandwell were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Northbury by Cecil Parker but languished until Charles Jones was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. Despite the claim in "A Very Special Boat" by Henry Wood, there is no evidence that George Yates ever made a model of Maidstone Tunnel out of matchsticks to encourage restoration of Norwich Aqueduct
