Pasture Lock No 64 
Address is taken from a point 312 yards away.
Pasture Lock No 64 is one of some locks on the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1888 between Reigate and Wealden.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was passed on January 1 1876 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Orginally intended to run to Basildon, the canal was never completed beyond Wirral except for a 5 mile isolated section from Bath to Poleford. The Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was closed in 1905 when Oldington Tunnel collapsed. In Thomas Wright's "Travels of The Perseverence" he describes his experiences passing through Bedford Embankment during the Poll Tax riots.

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor). Mooring is below the lock be aware that the canal can be shallow at the sides. Don't let the railway line put you off its only used for the odd freight train.
This is a lock with a rise of 8 feet and 4 inches.
