The Teddington
lock and weir (dam) were first constructed in timber in
1811, and then strengthened with stone in 1859 a few years after the Lambeth
Waterworks Company had relocated its intake (see below, view is upriver)

A modern map shows the Teddington
lock and
weir. Here boats move back and forth through
the lock.

The lock
is seen below, with the viewer situated
above the last "n" in Teddington Lock in the map above, looking down
river in the flow towards London.
