Flash Lock at Pershore, with steam launch Dragonfly III apparently waiting to pass downstream. 1895
This was Rodolph de Salis' boat. This image was originally captioned as at Nafford. In the 1904 issue of Bradshaw (compiled by de Salis) there were only two Navigation Weirs listed on the Avon, at Cropthorne and Pershore. This is clearly not Cropthorne, and the shape of the sluices and weir match the 1904 25" to the mile OS map of Pershore Navigation Weir.
