Description

The turntable mechanism located 20 metres west of the King's Arms Hotel is a structure from the 18th century or early 19th century, made of cast iron. It features a circular plate with a central rotating platform on a pivot, which was originally used to monitor the passage of vessels through the cut and to collect tolls. The cut itself was constructed between 1761 and 1764, with the last coal shipment occurring in 1861. This mechanism is listed for its historical interest.
