Old Lock, Rochdale Canal

This former lock on the Rochdale Canal near Castleton, Rochdale, is no longer used as a lock and the canal passes straight through. The level of the canal south of the lock was raised to connect to a diverted route passing though a tunnel below the M62 motorway. A new lock was constructed on the other side of the motorway, see SD8809 : Trub Lock, Rochdale Canal.
