Penton Hook Lock

Highlight • Rest Area

Penton Hook Lock on the River Thames was opened in 1815 to prevent floodwater to burst through the banks of the River Thames as it tried to carry straight on, thus cutting off Penton Hook Island. After the lock was installed, local farmers used to drive their cattle over the lock to graze. Now the island makes for a nice short walk with picnic benches and great views of the river.
