Description
Baldwin's Lock and Bridge, located on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, is a canal lock and associated accommodation bridge on the Rufford Branch, built around 1781 and later altered. The resident engineer for the project was Richard Owen, working for the Leeds-Liverpool Canal Company. The structure features large dressed sandstone blocks, with wooden gates at the north end and iron gates at the south end, which were installed in 1974. Small cast-iron mooring bollards are present on both sides, and there is an overflow channel on the west side. The bridge over the north entrance has stone ramps with parapets made of massive punch-dressed blocks, an oval number plate marked "4", and a flat wooden deck with side rails. This site is situated on the boundary between Burscough and Lathom.
