English: Southstoke: Somersetshire Coal Canal locks Three of the nineteen Combe Hay flight of locks on the Somersetshire Coal Canal. These climb round the narrow valley known as the Bulls Nose by Rowley Farm. Looking north west by the parallel public footpath. The locks replaced an inclined plane, itself an unsuccessful alternative to Robert Weldons doomed caisson lock. In the 19th century coal from mines at Paulton and Timsbury went east by barge through these locks to towns such as Melksham, Chippenham and Trowbridge |
