词条 | Victoria Lock (River Shannon) |
释义 |
Thomas Rhodes on the instructions of the Shannon Commissioners constructed the lock in the 1840s as part of a widescale upgrade of the Shannon Navigation. The lock is still in use today by pleasure craft, both private and fleets of rental cruisers who use the River Shannon and the connecting canals. A second lock, Hamilton Lock is also located nearby but is now disused. Protected StatusThe Record of Protected Structures[4] lists both the lock and the lock keepers cottage as protected structures (ref 38-05 & 38-04).[5] The lock is listed by the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (a service provided by the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht) as being of special interest in the architectural and technical interest categories in addition to being significant for its size.[3] The Lock keepers house is similarly listed as being of special interest in the architectural and technical interest categories.[6] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.iwai.ie/boating/index.html |title=IWAI - Shannon Locks and Bridges |publisher=Iwai.ie |date= |accessdate=2013-05-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130328120227/http://www.iwai.ie/boating/index.html |archive-date=2013-03-28 |dead-url=yes |df= }} {{water-transport-stub}}{{Ireland-struct-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.iwai.ie/maps/shannon/guide/12.php3 |title=IWAI - The Shell Guide to the River Shannon |publisher=Iwai.ie |date= |accessdate=2013-05-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120207152812/http://www.iwai.ie/maps/shannon/guide/12.php3 |archive-date=2012-02-07 |dead-url=yes |df= }} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&county=OF®no=14929013 |title=Victoria Lock, County Offaly: Buildings of Ireland: National Inventory of Architectural Heritage |publisher=Buildingsofireland.ie |date= |accessdate=2013-05-21}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/housing/building_or_altering_a_home/protected_structures.html |title=Protected structures |publisher=Citizensinformation.ie |date= |accessdate=2013-05-21}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Record of Protected Structures|url=http://www.offaly.ie/eng/Services/Heritage/Documents/Offaly_County_RPS.pdf|work=Offaly County Development Plan|accessdate=6 July 2013|date=February 2009}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&county=OF®no=14929012 |title=Victoria Lock, County Offaly: Buildings of Ireland: National Inventory of Architectural Heritage |publisher=Buildingsofireland.ie |date= |accessdate=2013-05-21}} 2 : River Shannon|Locks of Ireland |
