Nick Atty: > The Towpath Guide to the Staffordshire and Worcester Canal, which goes > into details of names in fascinating detail, just says: > "The lock at Deptmore, or Deepmore, is the first of eleven that take the > canal up to the summit level."
Steve Wood: > First? Tixall, surely... It all depends on where you're starting from. From Great Haywood Junction, Tixall would be the first lock although it would be the first of twelve. If you start from Stafford though, Deptmore/Deepmore would indeed be the first of eleven! Terry Streeter NB Arun - Theale
