Additionally, please note that lock 1e still requires booking 48 hours in advance, with passage available on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Huddersfield Narrow Canal - Lock 1E | Canal & River Trust (canalrivertrust.org.uk)

Welcome :: Canal & River Trust Licensing (canalrivertrust.org.uk)

Water levels at Lock 12e have recovered well. Initial signs suggest the grouting work has been successful, though we will continue to monitor the situation daily throughout the week.

The pounds are gradually filling, and we expect them to recover up to Lock 1e hopefully by the end of the week.

An update will be provided by 4 p.m. on Friday, the 13th.

The contractor has grouted to stem the leak at lock 12e. Our team are now attempting the re-fill the canal.

Pound 12 needs to be filled first so the contractor can confirm that their grouting has been successful.

Our team then need to re-fill the pounds all the way to lock 1e in a controlled order, so that we can re-open the canal.

Unfortunately due to vandalism of the locks this is proving difficult.

If anybody sees a person who is not working for the Trust tampering with the locks or gearing between 16e and 1e, please let us know as soon as possible, so we can take corrective action.

The next update will be given on 9th September.

The Huddersfield Narrow Canal is still closed from Lock 16E to Lock 1E because of low water levels resulting from a leak near Lock 12E at the Aqueduct.
