Woolsthorpe Middle Lock

Highlight • Bridge

Woolsthorpe Lock, on the Grantham Canal, is a picturesque place to stop for a moment. Nestling among stunning countryside, it is a lovely spot to while away some time. If you fancy a drink, the Dirty Duck pub on the opposite bank has a large garden beside the water and also serves food.

The church of St James the Great, Woolsthorpe-by-Belvoir sits within the Vale of Belvoir, on the Belvoir estate. It is an ironstone Victorian church of exterior charm and significant landscape value.
