Bratch Locks were planned and built by James Brindley back in 1772. He constructed two bridges, a toll house and lock keeper’s cottage, all built in mellow brick, making it a favourite photogenic and artistic spot. The entire area forms one of the prettiest groups of canal buildings on any canal system anywhere.

Have a look at the castle looking building to the right as you go down the locks.

Vandring

Bratch Locks were designed by esteemed canal engineer James Brindley and opened in 1772. The two bridges, toll house, and lock keeper’s cottage are very pretty and the spot is a great place for painters and photographers. There is also lots of wildlife — including otters, kingfishers, and dragonflies — and nature trails to explore.
