I'm not sure why the Falkirk Wheel keeps getting posted to HN, but hey I'm not gonna complain!
I'll repost what I shared last time though, there's another much older boat lift on the canal network that solves a similar problem of transporting boats from the canal up and down to a river, but built with Victorian engineering instead (though it's been retrofitted a few times) called the Anderton Boat Lift, and it's worth a visit!

The UK's canal network as a whole is fantastic, and definitely worth a day out on if you've got the time.
