From the Wikipedia article
Three Mills Lock, also known as Prescott Lock, is a lock on the Prescott Channel on the River Lea in London. The current structure was constructed by British Waterways and officially opened on 5 June 2009. The lock cuts off a section of the Bow Back Rivers from the tide, creating new opportunities for leisure boats, water taxis, trip boats and floating restaurants. It also allowed barges carrying construction materials to access the sites of the London 2012 Olympics and Stratford City.
