Additional Details:
Built in 1843, this lock was the site of several mills and the present mill was run by water power until a few years ago. One of the 56 locks on the Canal which had a total fall of 490 feet. The fact that the Canal lay so low and that the Whitewater River was subject to great floods caysed its usefulness to be impaired.
