When I was a kid in the 70's dad drove us across the bridge, it's was the road to Portsmouth, Ohio that crossed over this lock. I have also caught some nice Black Crappie at the end of the stone blocks.

This was Outlet Lock. It looked a lot different before the modern navigation aids were added to the Ohio River.

I heavily research the Canal system and I've never been able to get out to this one lock. I am working on an interactive map with photos of each lock. Its hard to get to this one

I have been exploring the huge canal section between Circleville and Chillicothe. Many sections are well preserved by the canal parks association. That looks like a lock to me. Possibly the last lock needed to lower boats into the river.

Due to the unpredictability of the Ohio river, Portsmouth never benefited from the canal as much as Cleveland did.

Also, those risers across the creek might have been to help load/unload cargo

The original south terminus was in Portsmouth, connecting to the Scioto River. At some point they relocated it here, but by then canal usage was declining.. As I understand it, only 1 or 2 boats ever passed through this lock. At some point they just decommissioned the lock and built the little dam to control the water level.

It is located west of the Scioto river mouth, and west of the Carl D. Perkins memorial bridge. If you do a satellite imagery search of the area, and then zoom in, you can see the outlet lock on the river!

The Cuyahoga is at the northern part of the OE Canal, then it follows the Tuscarawas south to the Licking and then to the Scioto as it goes south.. The Cuyahoga is a weird river it flows south and then north into lake erie.
