Description: Restored lock keeper's cottage near Shaw's Bridge Recently restored lock keeper's cottage near Shaw's Bridge in Belfast. It sits beside the now disused Lock No.3 on what was the Lagan Navigation Canal. A vernacular two-storey house with four rooms, it was built between 1827 and 1834. When the Lagan Navigation Company was dissolved in 1954, the lock keeper bought the cottage and stayed there until his death, willing it to one of his daughters who in turn sold it to the council so that it would stay in public hands.
