SO8304 : Dudbridge Road bridge and lock
near to Stroud, Gloucestershire, Great Britain

Dudbridge Road bridge and lock
This length of the Stroudwater Canal was converted into a flood relief channel in 1956 and the locks here at Dudbridge road had their gates removed and weirs installed. This is the lower, or Franklin's Lock (named after the builder) and forms a single structure with Dudbridge Road bridge. The lock chamber is generally in good condition and the main restoration work will be the provision of new gates and paddles, along with additional bypass culverts to maintain the flood flow capability.
