Reviews
The inclined plain at Foxton Locks was constructed in 1900, due to the congestion caused by the staircase Foxton Locks to increase capacity and reduce travel time. It was an engineering Marvel. Barges sailed into a metal trough, a Gate was closed on the end of the canal and the trough the boards was Lowered down the inclined plane to the canal below. It is a fantastic relic of industrial Britain.
Interesting site to see the remains of the Foxton Incline plane.
