Closest Village Hallam Fields
Lock 65 – Stanton
Update on 04/08/2023:
The required repairs at Stanton Lock has been completed and boaters can now proceed as normal.
Update on 26/07/2023:
Our local team has been unable to clear the obstruction and further assistance is required, which has been planned in.
There is a persistent leak on the bottom lock gates and plans are also scheduled with our partner group to repair this.
In the meantime, boaters can still operate the lock but we kindly request that the lock is left empty with the top gates fully sealed and paddles closed. This will prevent water draining through the bottom gates.
Temporary notices will be placed on the gates to instruct this. The pound will be topped up for navigation, but water levels may remain low until Friday due to by-wash water recovery. Please proceed with care.
We will update the website by the 4th August or as soon as we have more information.
