| Old Sly's Locks; ca. 1840s John Burrows, watercolour (Archives of Ontario - from Passfield, 1982) |
| The two locks sit in an artifical canal cut, excavated on the north bank of the Rideau River. An arched dam was built to raise the water into the canal cut. On the left, not visible in the painting is the waste weir. The lockmaster’s house can be seen beside the upper lock. |
