Notes
  • Significance: The Guard Locks were the first set of locks constructed in the Lowell System which are still in existence. They have, however, been altered and added to since first put into use. The Guard Locks complex now includes not only the locks, but also a sluice gatehouse dating from 1870, a navigation lock gatehouse (1881), and the Great (or Francis) Gate, a portcullis-type gate constructed in 1848-50 to keep flood waters from entering the canal system.
