Site de l'ancienne écluse de Douelle
1004 Route du Batut, 46140 Douelle, France
Site de l'ancienne écluse de Douelle is on the River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès) just past the junction with The Pocklington Canal.
Early plans of what would become the River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1888 but problems with Southcorn Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. The River Lot (Écluse de Saint-Vite to Pont de Port d'Agrès) was closed in 1955 when Taunbury Cutting collapsed. In his autobiography Arthur Wright writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
