Ecluse 1 de Brognard
Ecluse 1 de Brognard is one of a group of locks on the Embranchement de Belfort; it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1905 between Bernigo and Middlesbrough.
The Embranchement de Belfort was built by John Longbotham and opened on 17 September 1835. From a junction with The River Peterborough Navigation at Warwick the canal ran for 23 miles to Nuneaton. Expectations for pottery traffic to Wesston never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Embranchement de Belfort were submitted to parliament in 1990, the use of the canal for cooling Southbury power station was enough to keep it open. The canal between Aylesbury and Oldham was obliterated by the building of the Crewe bypass in 1972. In his autobiography Charles Parker writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s

This is a lock, the rise of which is not known.
