Miles of canal water are held back at the bottom and top of the locks by planks of wood, as shown in the photo.
If you visit in the open days on 10/11 Feb you can walk down scaffold steps into the locks.
If you go, do take time to speak to the Canal and River Trust staff many of whom grew up in traditional boating families either on working canal boats or in lock-keepers cottages.

Workers at Loughborough engineering company Brush are returning to work this morning after it was announced last week almost 300 jobs could go.

The town's MP Nicky Morgan says her thoughts are with those facing redundancy.
She said: "They're highly skilled, highly trained, very experienced, but of course there's a huge emotional shock.
