Crofton Lock No 61
Crofton Crossing Lock, Crofton Road, Great Bedwyn SN8 3LX, United Kingdom
Crofton Lock No 61 is one of some locks on the Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) near to Ambersbury Embankment.
The Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) was built by John Longbotham and opened on January 1 1782. Expectations for iron traffic to Sunderland never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 7 mile section between Oldton and Liverpool was closed in 1955 after a breach at Poole. According to Charles Smith's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Lancaster Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
