Hail to the Hive!
I'm loving life on the canal and i am loving the lock mechanisms. There's a lot of variation from canal network to network as back in the day they were all operated by different companies. But they are so cool to use and also to photograph.
This lock had a few cheeky inscriptions added to it reminding people to be careful. It's the first time I have seen cheeky inscriptions on the locks themselves.
I thought it was a nice touch as it pays to be careful...
