Pinkhill Lock is a lock on the River Thames in England. It is close to Farmoor, Oxfordshire.
The first lock was built of stone by Daniel Harris for the Thames Navigation Commission in 1791.[2]
The weir is on the other side of the island and carries a public footbridge. The name Luck's or Lot's Hole is given to part of the weir stream.
