Cette portion de rivière est maintenant administrée par la British Waterways et connue sous le nom de voie navigable Kennet (Kennet Navigation). L’écluse permet de franchir un dénivelé de 2,24 m (7 pieds 8 pouces). Il y a aussi une station de pompage adjacente qui assure à l’écluse des niveaux d'eau suffisants. (fr)

| - Fobney Lock is a lock on the River Kennet in the Small Mead area of Reading in the English county of Berkshire. Between the lock cut for the lock and the river itself is Fobney Island, which is a nature reserve. Fobney Lock was built between 1718 and 1723 under the supervision of the engineer John Hore of Newbury, and this stretch of the river is now administered by Canal & River Trust and known as the Kennet Navigation. It has a rise/fall of 7 ft 8 in (2.24 m). Fobney Island was transformed into a nature reserve in 2013, with the creation of wetland, a hay meadow and reed beds. It was intended that the resulting habitats would attract wildlife, including birds, bats, water voles, and otters. (en)
