The Pawtucket Gatehouse

The Pawtucket Gatehouse, overlooking Pawtucket Dam, is the largest
gatehouse on the canal system. Completed in 1848, the gatehouse
controls the flow of water into the Northern Canal and the mills
beyond. The Northern Canal completed the city's 5.6 mile canal
system, which is still being used today. |
