Well, Yes, I think it's a hideously over engineered monstrosity, but then I am biaised as I live within 10 yards of a traditional old lock gate, much gentler on the eye, kinder to the landscape, a thing such as that in this part of the country would look totally out of place and not be welcomed, but then we do have the benefit of countless hill lochs to supply a steady flow to the canal.
