Sandford Lock

Sandford Lock is located on the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation River and Canal not too far from the City of Chelmsford in the County of Essex (UK).

 

In the distance is Bundock's Bridge which dates back to the opening of the Navigation in 1797 and is classified as a Grade II listed building.

 

This location is just one nautical mile virtually to the inch from my home. A very amiable part of the world and a lovely towpath walk from Chelmsford city centre which eventually ends up about 10 miles away in the town of Maldon.
