The Locks Inn is a remote riverside pub at the limit of the navigation on the River Waveney on the Norfolk/Suffolk border. It is also accessibly via a long track from Station Road in Geldeston.

In 2020 it was put up for sale by auction at very short notice and its future as a pub looked in serious doubt. But the community pulled together and managed to purchase the pub and set it up as a Community Benefit Society. Almost 1600 people are now shareholder members of this iconic pub giving it the widest ownership of any pub in the country.

The Locks is is a family friendly pub with good food, quality ales from local breweries and a wide range of musical events
