Lee and Stort Navigation: Lock no 3 - Spellbrook Lock A lock situated in what appears to be a remote stretch of the route, though a look at the map reveals that the hamlet of Spellbrook is just the other side of the railway line to the west while the landmark of Wallbury (an iron-age behemoth) is alongside to the east, though it is not seen from the canal.
