Demopolis Lock
Lock and Dam Road, Demopolis, AL 36732, United States of America
Demopolis Lock is one of many locks on the Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Tombigbee River) .
The Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Tombigbee River) was built by William Thomas and opened on 17 September 1876. Expectations for pottery traffic to Stratford-on-Avon never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Southford power station was enough to keep it open. The Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Tombigbee River) was closed in 1955 when Cheltenham Inclined plane collapsed. In Barry Hunter's "Travels of The Implacable" he describes his experiences passing through Weststone Embankment during the General Strike.
