Watford


There are 7 locks at Watford on the Grand Union Canal's Leicester Branch, 4 of which form a staircase. These locks, not far from the bustling Watford Gap service area on the M1 motorway, create a substantial bottleneck on this busy canal link, and it is not unknown for boats to queue for more than an hour.
See Google Aerial View of this location.
