River Lock
The Liskeard & Looe Union Canal was completed in 1828 between the East Looe River and Moorswater. The intention was to carry sea sand lime and coal up into the rural districts for agricultural improvement. Trade was boosted in the mid 1840s by copper ore coming down from the Caradon mines and granite from Cheesewring Quarry. The building of the Liskeard and Looe Railway made the top section of the canal unusable and trade steadily declined on the lower end until final closure in 1910. This is the river lock at Terras seen from a passing train. Remnants of the gates can still be seen after over one hundred years since closure.
