All the gear, no idea

Richmond Lock

Richmond Lock

Richmond Lock is the last lock on the Thames, and includes a tidal barrage, which makes up the majority of this shot. When the tide is in, the sluice gates are raised and boats can pass underneath. However, at other times they must make use of the lock, visible on the left of the photo. Here’s an overhead photo which will probably make things a bit clearer.

    Dear Adam

    Love the ‘Richmond Lock’ photo and would love a A3 size print. Myself and my fiance (as of this month) met at Twickenham campus uni and have great memories of this bridge as of 6 year ago March 21st, hence a great present for this occasion. Please let me know if this is possible and what info you need from me.
