Description
The weir and salmon ladder at Linton Lock, dating from around 1767, is a significant structure made of coursed limestone, with some parts rendered in cement. The weir spans most of the river, featuring an overflow channel on the right and a salmon ladder on the left. The retaining wall on the right side of the river is constructed with herringbone-tooled stones. The top surface above the overflow channel consists of large stone blocks secured with iron and lead-covered ties. There are later paddles equipped with winding gear. The salmon ladder includes a series of stepped basins with ramped walls, and downstream, there are the remains of a wall and possibly a large pool. This structure was built following an Act of Parliament in 1767 aimed at making the River Ouse navigable.
