The lock house belongs to Peter Rhodes a friend of mine, the paint used is a special waterproof type that allows the brick work to breathe but not let water through? It also has methods of sealing the doors etc, now the new flood defense is in the cottage and boats will no doubt flood much more regularly as the defences are for protecting the railways
