Athlone Canal
Athlone Canal
This picture is taken from south of the town near where the Canal enters the Shannon. The Canal which is approximately a mile and a quarter in length is situated west of Athlone and was built by Thomas Omer in 1757 to by-pass the stretch of river which flows through the town. The by-pass was necessary because the river had a series of shallows and rapids as well as some man-made obstacles such as eel-weirs which impeded the navigation. There is a natural fall of over four foot between the point where the canal commenced, north of Athlone (near the No 1 Battery) and where it re-entered the Shannon. To overcome this drop a large lock was constructed – when the Canal went out of use following the Shannon Navigation Works the Lock was used to power a mill.
