More about this scene
The curve of the river forces bargemen to make a skilful manoeuvre into the lock, which allows boats to travel past the weir. On many occasions when the river has been high, the jetty has felt the heavy thud of a barge - the vibration is felt just as strongly in the Golden Lion Inn.
