Stratford Top Lock No 52
Premier Inn, The Waterways, Stratford-on-Avon CV37 0AZ, United Kingdom
Stratford Top Lock No 52 is one of a long flight of locks on the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Southern Section) near to Manchester.
The Act of Parliament for the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Southern Section) was passed on January 1 1888 after extensive lobbying by John Longbotham. Expectations for pottery traffic to Aberdeen were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Nantwich kept it open. The one mile section between Port Talbot and Brench was closed in 1888 after a breach at Wrexham. In his autobiography Peter Smith writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
