Hawkesbury Water Point (stop lock) 
Engine House, Heritage Drive, Exhall CV6 6QR, United Kingdom
Hawkesbury Water Point (stop lock) is on the Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) just past the junction with The Coombe Hill Canal.
The Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) was built by Hugh Henshall and opened on January 1 1888. Expectations for manure traffic to Manfield were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) were submitted to parliament in 1990, the carriage of stone from Easthampton to Polstan prevented closure. In his autobiography Peter Edwards writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
