Summary[edit]

Description
English: Hatton Top Lock and cottage, Warwickshire Seen on a very dull evening following many hours of rain. There are twenty-one wide locks in the two mile flight at Hatton on the Grand Union Canal. Together they change the water level of the navigation by 146ft 6in (44.6 metres). Despite their size they fill and empty quickly, being very well maintained. The low gearing of the paddles takes a lot of winding though! The house by the lock was (maybe is), presumably, the lock-keeper's house next to the top lock of the flight. It still appears to have no road access.
