Title
Photograph- This shows the only breakdown that endagesrs the west wall. The prison is filled with rubble stone, fortunately, or flooding would have washed too much away from the eastern portions still standing. The old trolley pylons still stand just southeast of the lock. It is a vital part of Lancaster's history using water to get to down river markets. Lock Number 1 of Conestoga Naviagation Company on the Conestoga River.

Title
Photograph- This is the boat entrance to the lock and the beginning of the over 100 foot long west wall - all of which seems to be standing except where it is tumbled partely near the lock in the last picture (1-06-04-69). West wall may extend 200 feet. Canal boats were long and narrow, but the lock is really still a good example of the canal works.
