'Viator' Dutch barge replica
The lock keeper monitors the progress of Viator, a replica Dutch barge built in 2006, as she prepares to depart the historic Avon Lock at Tewkesbury on 27th August 2023. This is a rare example of a lock that is still a toll station between two separate river navigations – the Avon and the Severn – that was built in 1636 by Royal Charter.
