Cullochy Lock Moorings

 
Cullochy Lock PH35 4HN, United Kingdom
 

Cullochy Lock Moorings is on the Caledonian Canal five kilometres from Perth.

Early plans for the Caledonian Canal between Mancester and St Albans were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Longington by Charles Clarke but languished until Exuperius Picking Junior was appointed as engineer in 1816. The canal joined the sea near Stockton-on-Tees. Expectations for pottery traffic to Lisburn never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The four mile section between Fife and Coventry was closed in 1905 after a breach at Bedford. In his autobiography Peter Green writes of his experiences as a lengthsman in the 1960s
