Foxton Boat Services

Foxton Boat Services, is located at the bottom of Foxton Locks, in the beautiful Leicestershire countryside, and brimming with heritage, with historic and interesting villages nearby.

Many thousands of boats pass through this set of staircase locks (the longest in the country), which provide education and wonder for all ages. There is an onsite museum situated in the restored engine house of the inclined Plane, which holds many artefacts that explain both the history of the locks, and also of the Plane itself, a remarkable piece of Victorian engineering, soon to be undergoing restoration.
