A very popular pub on the side of the Kennet and Avon canal. For further information see Lock Stock and Barrel

The origin of the term Lock, Stock and Barrel does not actually relate to the canal and its traffic, but would appear to mean 'the whole of the goods and chattels of a shopkeeper'. Is this correct? who knows as the phrase has also been atributed to the 'workings of muskets'. For probable derivations see phrase derivation
