Additional information

It has been reported that there is a ledge in this lock "12 feet from the bottom gate, third stone down." The ledge is not visible when the lock is full.

This ledge was implicated in the 2012 sinking in the lock of a 59ft narrowboat descending in tandem with another narrowboat, the boat allegedly being "hung up" on the ledge.

Of course hundreds of boats have passed through without recorded incident.

"Of 24 recorded Leeds & Liverpool Canal chamber wall hang-up incidents on record, 22 were at the Bank Newton Flight. Eight at Lock 38, Seven at Lock 40"

Please be aware of this and take precautions as necessary when locking down with two boats or a widebeam in this lock
