Écluse de Aiguillon is one of many locks on the River Lot (Garonne - Canalet de Lot Jonction to Écluse de Saint-Vite) and unusually is opened with a crank handle between Stratford-on-Avon and Bolton.
The Act of Parliament for the River Lot (Garonne - Canalet de Lot Jonction to Écluse de Saint-Vite) was passed on January 1 1816 after extensive lobbying by Peter Clarke. In 1972 the canal became famous when Henry Harding made a model of Newport Inclined plane out of matchsticks for a bet.
