Stickings Lock is located on the Stickings Cut, a bypass of the River Irwell at Davyhulme, Lancashire. This cut was created to shorten a winding section of the river, with the original lock dating back to the 1720s and a replacement built in 1832. The Stickings Cut is approximately 600 yards long, saving about a mile of river travel according to pittdixon.go-plus.net. Davyhulme is part of the Trafford borough, near Urmston and Flixton.
The Mersey and Irwell Navigation was a river navigation in North West England, which provided a navigable route from the Mersey estuary to Salford and Manchester, by improving the course of the River Irwell and the River Mersey. Eight locks were constructed between 1724 and 1734, and the rivers were improved by the construction of new cuts several times subsequently. Use of the navigation declined from the 1870s, and it was ultimately superseded by the Manchester Ship Canal, the construction of which destroyed most of the Irwell section of the navigation and the long cut between Latchford and Runcorn.
The product is an original oil painting on board titled "Stickings Lock" by artist John Corbridge. Created in 2011, this framed painting depicts the Stickings Lock on the River Irwell in Flixton, Lancashire. Measuring 37 cm in height and 29 cm in width, this piece is a unique one of a kind (OOAK) and showcases the artist's signature. The artwork captures the essence of the river and surrounding area, making it a valuable addition to any art collection.
