Description

Bridge No 132 is hump-backed and built of rubble sandstone, with segmental arch and low parapet. The arch has thin voussoirs and keystones. The abutments curve outwards on both sides and the parapet has square end piers to S. On the E side is a cast iron plaque with the bridge number cast in relief.

On the east side the canal banks retain the masonry channels of a surviving stop-lock. By-pass overflow to south.

Lock No 64 is the first of a flight of five locks that end a 37km pound and raise the canal 17m towards Brecon. The lock chamber is faced in brick and the lock gates were replaced in 1996.
