UNESCO - Pontcysyllte Aqueduct And Canal, UK



The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct is a navigable aqueduct that carries the Llangollen Canal over the valley of the River Dee in north east Wales. Completed in 1805, it is the longest and highest aqueduct in Britain. The aqueduct 307 m long, 3.4 m wide and 1.60 m deep - it consists of a cast iron trough supported 38 m above the river on iron arched ribs carried on nineteen hollow masonry piers.
Wouldn't it be just too cool to ride on one of those canal boats?! Thank you Eileen, and for the special Olympics winners stamp :))
