Lockville Canal Park

A closeup of moss, lichens and liverworts making a home on the sandstone walls of the canal locks.

Lockville Canal Park is a 7 acre green space that contains three intact locks that once made up part of the central section of the Ohio and Erie Canal, a 308-mile highway of water that connected Lake Erie at Cleveland to the Ohio River at Portsmouth.

Construction on the locks began on July 4th, 1825 and took over seven years to complete. The canal system propelled Ohio's economy from last in the nation to nearly first in just a few years.

Seen in the background is Hartman Number 2 Covered Bridge, a late nineteenth-century covered bridge featuring a queenpost truss, shake roofing and red plank siding.
The soft purple blooms of ground ivy or creeping charlie (Glechoma hederacea). 

Often considered a stubborn weed to eradicate from the lawn, when in bloom and in a park setting the plant takes on a different aura.
