The English River Thames is navigable from Cricklade (for very small, shallow boats) or Lechlade (for larger boats) to the sea, and this part of the river falls 71 meters (234 feet). There are 45 locks on the river, each with one or more adjacent weirs. These lock and weir combinations are used for controlling the flow of water down the river, most notably when there is a risk of flooding, and provide for navigation above the tideway.

  • Dieser Artikel verzeichnet die Wehre und Schleusen der Themse. Die Themse ist von Cricklade (für kleinere Boote) und ab Lechlade (für größere Boote) bis zum Erreichen des Meeres schiffbar. In diesem Verlauf fällt die Themse um 71 Meter. Es gibt 45 Schleusen im Fluss, die alle ein oder mehrere Wehre haben. Diese Kombination aus Schleusen und Wehren dient einerseits dazu, den Wasserfluss – insbesondere bei Flutgefahr – zu kontrollieren, sowie die Schiffbarkeit oberhalb der Schleuse Teddington Lock zu gewährleisten.
