We Love Foxton Locks and The Boat Lift

FIPT (Foxton Inclined Plane Trust) has a primary aim to foster interest in the Boat Lift often known as the Inclined Plane. We also love the unique Foxton locks and the 3,000 miles of inland navigable waterways. We run the independent Foxton Canal Museum. On its doorstep we have the staircase of 10 locks. The Museum is in the reconstructed boiler house for the Boat Lift, which used to run down from its back wall.

Please explore this website for more information.

If like us you love Foxton and its waterways why not join the trust and/or volunteer with us?
