| Closest waterway | Leicester Line (Grand Union Canal) |
| Starts at | Lock 18 - Kibworth Top Lock |
| Ends at | Lock 22 - Cranes Lock |
The towpath side bottom gate at Kibworth Top Lock 18 has come away from the headpost causing the gate and beam to fail. This repair will need assessing by our Engineers and a repair is being planned for as soon as possible.
We will update this notice with further information once available.
