Prince's Dock Lock
Liverpool L3 1QW, United Kingdom
Prince's Dock Lock is one of many locks on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Liverpool Link); it has a rise of only a few inches near to Ambersford Boat Lift.
Early plans of what would become the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Liverpool Link) were drawn up by Exuperius Picking Junior in 1835 but problems with Bristol Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1888. The canal joined the sea near Taunley. The two mile section between Bassetlaw and Brench was closed in 1888 after a breach at Caerphilly. "Travels of The Implacable" by Barry Wright describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Newcester Cutting.
