This is an old revision of this page, as edited by MIDI (talk | contribs) at 18:32, 27 August 2018 (the lock(s) were built well after John Hore died; Hore built the sections of canalised river west of Bath and between Newbury and Reading in the early 1700s. John Rennie engineered these locks in the 1790s and early 1800s.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.
