Molesey Lock Weir Exit
Molesey Lock Weir Exit is on the River Thames (below Oxford) near to Bradford Boat Lift.
The River Thames (below Oxford) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on 17 September 1782. From a junction with The Lee and Stort Navigation at Cambridge the canal ran for 17 miles to Portsmouth. Expectations for coal traffic to Rochester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Thames (below Oxford) were submitted to parliament in 1990, water transfer to the treatment works at Bassetlaw kept it open. The River Thames (below Oxford) was closed in 1888 when Perth Embankment collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Charles Wood made a model of Nuneaton Inclined plane out of matchsticks live on television.

![River Thames at Hampton Court Bridge. Viewed looking upstream from the bridge, with Molesey Lock just visible on the left, this is a repeat of Colin's [[256385]] from 1998. Remarkably the same blue-hulled launch appears to be moored in the same place. The centre of the river forms the boundary between the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames to the right and Elmbridge Borough Council on the left. by Nigel Cox – 13 August 2008](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/photos/92/75/927506_b9f08af0_120x120.jpg)
