Foxton Locks

There are ten locks at Foxton, in two groups of five, covering a rise of 75ft. It takes approximately 45 minutes to get a boat from top to bottom (or bottom to top!). The locks are extremely busy in the summer so the wait can be quite long and slots have to be booked.

 

The Locks, designed by Benjamin Bevan, were built in 1810 and opened in 1814.
