Well done then! I crossed Chirk aqueduct in 1999  I crossed Chick in 1970, in a Dawncraft. Is it a competition? Proof: I was just stating a fact. |

Another easy one. The most northerly lock on the connected system. Google suggests Oxclose. |

Tunnel replete with vampire. Gorsty Hill? Correct. But is that the right spelling? |

Correct. But is that the right spelling? I had to check then, the area is known as Gorsty Hill above it so I've always assumed it to be the same. Canalplan calls it Gosty Tunnel, otherwise known as Gorsty Tunnel. I grew up in the Black Country and knew Rowley Regis from the land before the cut. Probably bastardisation at some point. Interesting(ish) |

Go under a very low bridge to get a view of the theatre. Clopton bridge? No, but only a quick stroll from Clopton bridge. A few years ago I was heading under Clopton bridge with my friend on his boat whilst the river was in flood. He cocked things up royally and everything got swept off the roof. Somehow his roofbox acted as a little boat and his bike landed squarely on top of it. They were picked up downstream and brought back to us in the basin by two kind chaps in a little cruiser. The bridge in my clue required talking a few American tourists into standing on the well deck so we could get under without taking off the solar panels. |

Sliding rail bridge?
Highest ordinary mooring?
Tunnel with heiroglyphs round the entrance?

There's a disused swing rail bridge by Isis lock on the sheepwash channel Thames/Oxford canal link.
probably not what you mean.
No one has answered the "Lock with shitty name" yet. Clue its south of Braunston.
