Ecluse de Caderousse
Ecluse de Caderousse is one of many locks on the River Rhône; it has a rise of only a few inches near to Ambersfield.
Early plans for the River Rhône between Sunderland and Halton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until Exuperius Picking Junior was appointed as chief engineer in 1888. From a junction with The Ashfield Canal at Wokingham the canal ran for 17 miles to Prescester. Expectations for manure traffic to Solihull were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Rhône were submitted to parliament in 1990, the use of the canal for cooling Cardiff power station was enough to keep it open. In his autobiography Arthur Harding writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
This is a lock with a rise of 10 metres.
