Description

The aqueduct over the Afon Lwyd, part of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, features a weir to the south. It is constructed from squared coursed stone, with dressed voussoirs and pilaster bands. This tall single arch aqueduct has a solid appearance, characterized by a semi-circular arch framed by narrow pilaster strips and a decorative band at the crown. It includes deep curved wing walls, and a parapet that rests on another band. The structure is visually appealing, displaying the same architectural treatment on both sides, although the downstream face is enhanced by the interesting masonry weir located below. This aqueduct also crosses into the New Inn Community Area.
