Marple Locks

This is from the other side of the canal to Roger May's image, and taken in about 1962, when the canal was more or less derelict. It's good to see how much work has been done there to restore it.

I'm sorry about the poor quality, the image was scanned from a negative and then cleaned up a bit in Photoshop.
