Lock for the gate protects the bikes at an elementary school. It's been there a while you can tell. | shot on film, Canon A2E, 2000; scanned in 2017.
This ornate antique metal rim lock (or lock box) is one of the earliest types of door locks made in America. The lock is fastened to the face of the door, so the beautiful scrolls on its surface are visible.

Rea steam tugs Throstlegarth and Rosegarth seen in Liverpool Langton Lock sometime in the late 'fifties or early 'sixties. locking out for a job somewhere on the River Mersey. Despite a love of all the older tugs which used to work on the Mersey, I suppose I have a soft spot for the Rea boats.

It is a Russian tradition that newly married couples kiss on a bridge on their wedding day. Because Moscow's day-to-day bridges are clogged with traffic and garbage, the city built a romantic pedestrian crossing over a canal by the Moscow River so couples could smooch in peace. In recent years, couples borrowed the Italian wedding day tradition of fastening a lock to the bridge and throwing the key into the river - to make sure that nobody else can find the key to one's beloved's heart, I was told by someone who had done it. Moscow officials removed the locks and added a "tree" - and then many "lock trees."
Lock gates
Teddington Lock is a complex of three locks and a weir on the River Thames between Ham and Teddington, it was first built in 1810.
The limit of legal powers between the Port of London Authority, the navigation authority downstream to the North Sea and that upstream to small headwaters of the river, the Environment Agency, is marked nearby by an obelisk on the "Surrey" (towpath, right) bank.
The weir named Teddington Weir marks the river's usual tidal limit and is the lowest on the Thames. This lock is the lowest full-tide lock and second lowest of all-tide locks on the Thames.
The complex of civil engineering or infrastructure in essence consists of a large long weir and three locks: a conventional launch lock in regular use, very large barge lock and a small skiff lock. The barge lock was made to accommodate long barges, steamers or passenger ferries and has an additional set of gates half-way to operate more quickly for shorter craft. The staggered structures incorporate two reinforced narrow islands. The upper island is traversed by and accessible by the lock gates or Teddington Lock Footbridge.
The Teddington Lock Footbridges are two footbridges over the River Thames in England, situated just upstream of Teddington Lock at Teddington. There is a small island between the bridges.
The two footbridges were built between 1887 and 1889, funded by donations from local residents and businesses. They replaced a ferry which gave its name to Ferry Road at Teddington. The southern bridge consists of a suspension bridge crossing the weir stream and linking the island to Teddington. The northern bridge is an iron girder bridge crossing the lock cut and linking the island to Ham on the Surrey bank.
The footbridges are both Grade II listed
At the end of the Stourbridge canal where it joins the Staffs & Worcs canal. When the pictures were taken work was suspended I guess due to the poor weather.
So here's the story... I'm a nighthawk... One night I was up until around 2 AM. As I was brought my dirty dishes to the kitchen before heading to bed, I heard some noise outside and discovered that there was a guy trying to wrestle my barbeque off the back step. Heh... The window was open so I yelled at him and he took off. So I chained it up with a bike lock until I could get to the hardware store for something better...
But the real reason I took the pic: Everyone else has a lock pic but me. At least mine has a story! :)
