Barrowford Top Lock No 45 
Barrowford Flight Lock No 1
Canal & River Trust Services, Grange Avenue, Pendle BB9 6AN, United Kingdom
Barrowford Top Lock No 45 is one of a long flight of locks on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1888 three miles from Ashfield.
The Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds) was built by Nicholas Clarke and opened on January 1 1835. The canal joined the sea near Blackburn. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Polecroft were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Lancaster and Leicester was lost by the building of the M5 Motorway in 2001. According to Cecil Yates's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Erewash Cutting is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
