Cromwell Lock, Navigation lock on River Trent in Nottinghamshire, England.
The lock structure features a large navigation system with gates and controls that manage water levels for vessels traveling along the River Trent.
The initial lock construction began in 1908 after the Trent Navigation Company received authorization through an Act of Parliament in 1906.
A memorial garden with Scottish granite honors ten Royal Engineers who lost their lives during a navigation exercise in September 1975.
The lock allows both commercial and recreational vessels to navigate the River Trent, with regular maintenance ensuring continuous operation throughout the year.
This location marks the tidal limit of the River Trent and stands 72 kilometers from Coton in the Elms, the furthest point from the sea in Great Britain.
