Originally a three-rise lock, Greenberfield Locks were adapted to three separate single locks in 1820. Above the second lock, you'll spot an old limekiln. Lime used to be carried between Yorkshire and Lancashire along this section of the canal for use in the fields.

Hiking
The highest point of the canal.
From here, all the way back to Leeds, or all the way on to Liverpool, is downhill all the way.
