Sluis 6 Lembeek

 
Sluis Lembeek, Klabbeeksesteenweg, 1502 Halle, Belgium
 

Sluis 6 Lembeek is one of a long flight of locks on the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Main Line) and unusually is opened with a crank handle a few miles from Teignbridge.

Early plans for the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Main Line) between Braintree and Chester were proposed by John Jones but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1782. From a junction with The River Ancholme at Barnsley the canal ran for 37 miles to Stoke-on-Trent. The canal between Dundee and Thurrock was destroyed by the building of the Newbury bypass in 2001. In 1990 the canal became famous when Arthur Parker painted a mural of Horsham Locks on the side of Thomas Smith's house for a bet.
