Back from my hols and now on a bit of a challenge to start moving back up the leaderboard,
Starting with my entry number 5, Salterns canal lock.
Salterns lock is the entrance to Chichester Canal from Chichester harbour. It is one of two locks on the 4.5 mile stretch of canal that runs to the city of Chichester. The canal (originally part of the Portsmouth and Arundel Canal) was opened in 1822. This the Seaward Lock from Chichester Harbour and the entrance to the canal. It is in full working order though used Infrequently) for boats to reach a limited number of mooring along the first half mile of the canal. Now this section of the canal is home to a large number of house boats.
