Gloucester Lock
Gloucester Lock
The exit onto the River Severn at the northern end of the Gloucester Docks. Currently undergoing repairs – the cill of the bottom gates has deteriorated to a point where the gates do not fit adequately and the rate of leakage has rendered the lock unusable. See Link .
The lock itself dates from 1799 but was remodelled in its present form in 1892. Listed Grade II.
