    First picture (Dirty Duck) is definitely not 1921.,
    Lock has gates removed which was done in 1950s. It also has Restoration Society Information Board near bridge. House has modern single TV aerial.
    Well into the 1980s – only 60 years out!

    Second Pictures looks as though it is the section between A1 and Vincents Bridge towards the “Harlaxton Cut” Section.
