Those who boat through locks where the walls have stone incorporated into the structure, will no doubt notice the mason marks that remain there even now. Some locks have date stones that relate to a reconstruction but few have details of the engineer and staff involved. The Weighton Lock on the Market Weighton Canal has a a stone inscription the falls into the last category- the source is Hugh Compton Transparency Collection
