Was this the Lower Lee plan, where BW were in partnership with the local 
residents?  As I understood the system, the local residents chuck their 
rubbish in the Lee Navigation, and when it arrives at the next lock BW 
fish it out and set it to one side.  The next night the locals throw it 
back in again (ideally) below the lock and the rubbish makes its way on 
to the next lock.
