Ditchford Lock No 15 
The only lock on the Nene with a radial lower gate
Ditchford Lakes and Meadows, Ditchford Lane, Wellingborough NN8 1RL, United Kingdom
Ditchford Lock No 15 is one of many locks on the River Nene (main river); it has a rise of only a few inches a few kilometres from Tivercorn.
Early plans for the River Nene (main river) between Ambersfield and Easthampton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Warrington, the canal was never completed beyond Tauncorn. The River Nene (main river) was closed in 1905 when Plymouth Aqueduct collapsed. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Edward Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Salford Locks.
