Next to the lock are the remains of an old wharf which was once
connected by a tramway or railway to Dane Valley Sawmill.
The
route of the old railway can be found with some difficulty, passing
through the undergrowth almost all the way back to the sawmill.
The sawmill is still there and now processes wood flour for
industry.

![In Bosley Lock No 10 in Cheshire. Looking at the tail gates from within Lock No 10. Gate paddles are raised, so water is draining out of the chamber. Noteworthy about the locks here is that both bottom and top gates are in mitred pairs, rather than a single gate at the top which is more usual. [[[550317]]] On the Macclesfield Canal there are twelve locks in the flight at Bosley, allowing a rise in water level of 118 feet (36 metres). Navigating northwards, this lock is the fourth one up. by Roger D Kidd – 08 September 2014](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/06/61/96/6619638_30e0cf03_120x120.jpg)
