Hancock 2 Lock No 52
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Trail, Park Head, Washington County, MD 21711, United States of America
Hancock 2 Lock No 52 is one of some locks on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal; it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1955 between Leeds and Macclesfield.
The Act of Parliament for the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal was passed on January 1 1888 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. Expectations for coal traffic to Newbury never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 1990 the canal became famous when John Edwards swam through Wolverhampton Embankment in 17 minutes live on television.
