February 3, 2024, Edstone Aqueduct

The longest canal aqueduct in England is said to be 145m long and was built between 1793 and 1812. The iron canal is navigated by narrow, purpose-built ships and the locks are operated by hand. There is a small parking lot below the viaduct. From there you can take a staircase directly to the canal.

Beautiful bridge and weir in village of Wootton Wawen. The aqueduct just to the east is well worth a visit, too.
