Knostrop Fall Lock

Knostrop Fall Lock was just a few miles outside of Leeds. We found quiet moorings on a dead end towpath and stayed a few days to collect ourselves before venturing into the city centre.

Will fished as usual but there were no fish. The only thing he caught was a condom 🤢

Knostropp Lock itself had a tribute to 14 year old George Lund, who lost his life in April, just a few months ago. He jumped into the lock just after a boat had passed through. It was meant to be a prank. He thought he'd be able to get to the ladders and climb out but the turbulence and cold were too much. He resurfaced once but sadly drowned.En savoir plus
