- Additional Information
- There is a water point located by the lock landing, and an Elsan Unit, that can be found approximately 40m from moorings, at the top end of the access track that runs behind the cafe building. There is a refuse compound located in the main car park area, close to the CRT Hatton Office & maintenance yard. The refuse compound is located to the left by the car park entrance. There are two compounds there; one is secured with a BWB padlock, which is for the use of boaters. The other side of the compound, is for the sole use of the cafe, and this has a combination code padlock securing it. These customer facilities are not a dedicated facility for the Hatton Top Lock mooring customers, and do not form part of the mooring contract, as they are open for use by passing boats, as well as other canal users.
