Title
James River and Kanawha Canal Locks. The canal, which operated between 1835 to 1880, serves as the focal point of the area's interpretation. The Battery Creek Lock was reconstructed between 1961 and 1965. Severe flooding in 1985 damaged the lock gates which were reconstructed in 1987-88. The view is to the south. - Blue Ridge Parkway, Between Shenandoah National Park and Great Smoky Mountains, Asheville, Buncombe County, NC
