Yesterday dinner-time
Knostrop Lock
River Aire
Thwaite Gate
Leeds
During the 'clean-up'/re-instatement works, after the breaching caused by the December floods
How it looked before.....
Aerial photograph to show the post-breach
Note how the unused (& in-filled) lock chamber has also been washed away
Oh!, & in case anyone's wondering, the large circular stone structure is not a ventilation shaft for a railway tunnel, it was the swivel-point for a (railway) swing-bridge
