Hambleden Lock

Hambleden Lock is a lock with a long weir situated on the River Thames. The lock is on the Berkshire bank between Aston and Remenham. It was built by the Thames Navigation Commission in 1773.
The great weir is impressive and there are walkways over it from the lock to the small village of Mill End on the Buckinghamshire bank.
