Description
Newlay Locks is a flight of three locks built between 1770 and 1777 on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. The locks feature dressed millstone grit walls that ramp up to the lower two gates. There are steps on each side, and steel footbridges have replaced the original single wooden bridge on the downstream side of each gate. An overflow is located on the south side. The canal connecting Leeds and Holmbridge, near Gargrave, was opened in 1777, while the entire Leeds and Liverpool Canal was completed in 1816.
