History of the Waterways - Past & Present

Not sure about the facts though- a  brief history has its pitfalls. For example the height of the Pontcysyllyte Aqueduct above the Dee is given as a hundred feet. In fact the tallest point is a fraction above 125 feet, as the trip boat guides on Jones the Boat regularly state. I  do not think the horse boats that come down from Llangollen are as regular as is stated.

In fact at busy times, with boats waiting to pass across this famous aqueduct, congestion can lead to delays in trip boat times sometimes.
