Sturt's Lock is a lock on the Regent's Canal, in the London Borough of Islington, England. The lock has a rise of 8 ft (2.4 m) [1]

There is a residential mooring area.[2]

In 2021 the area of the lock was the subject of a planning application to which the Friends of the Regent's Canal objected.[3]
