Bradford Lock
Bradford Lock (grid reference ST825602) is a lock situated at Bradford on Avon on the Kennet and Avon Canal, England.
It was in Bradford on Avon that the first sod was cut for the Kennet and Avon Canal in 1794 and had wharves above and below the lock. The lock has a rise/fall of 12ft 6 inches.[1]
There are moorings above and below Bradford Lock. Next to the canal, a little way west of the lock, is a huge 14th century tithe barn.[2]
