Audlem Locks (No 14), Shropshire Union Canal, Cheshire

There are fifteen locks in a two mile flight lowering the water by 93 feet (about 28 metres). An energetic boat crew experiencing no delays can do the job in under two hours, but around two and a half is more realistic. This can extend to four hours and even more during busy times.
