County lock is the 106th and last official lock on the Kennet & Avon canal. It was initially sited on the side of the river next to Bear Wharf and its nearby malthouses, but when that was filled in during the 1870's it was rebuilt on the opposite side, complete with weir.

Part of the new Oracle shopping complex can be seen in the background, just prior to it opening in 1999.
