Montgomery Canal: Arddleen to Pool Quay

Photographs taken along the Montgomery Canal between Arddleen Bridge 103 and Pool Quay Wharf.

    Montgomery Canal: Arddleen to Pool Quay - March 31, 2021

    Arddleen winding hole adjacent to bridge 103 which carries the busy A483 across the canal via a culvert. This is the northern most reach of the navigable section from Welshpool. However, given the weed and silt is obviously sees little use despite being reopened in the late 1990s. Reconnection with the full canal network proceeds slowly with a suggestion full restoration will be compleed by 2029/30.

    Remains of the abutments of the original bridge 103 which carried the A483 at Arddleen are a few miles south of the current culverted bridge. The 1963 1" Ordnance Survey Map show this bridge to be intact at this date. However, the A483 was diverted away from the village sometime after this.
