There is an interesting piece of news on Facebook from the Basingstoke Canal Authority.

'We had a slight hiccup on the canal this morning when a boat lifted one of the gates at Lock 15.
Luckily our rangers were able to get to the site quickly and the gate and the balance beam were back on within a couple of hours so the boats could continue on their way.'
