MHS Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 My brother is joining us in a few weeks time and will meet us at Trevor. I understand that there is a large new car park since we were last up there. It appears to be close to the visitor moorings through the Anglo Welsh hire base. Has anyone experience of leaving a car here for 2 or 3 days? I think there’s a £3 per day charge, but can you leave a car there for more than a day? Many thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray T Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) Parked there on many occasions never had any trouble. Never stopped overnight. The public car park is on the RHS of the cut. The area on the LHS is the Anglo Welsh base. https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/places-to-visit/pontcysyllte-aqueduct-world-heritage-site Always phone Anglo Welsh to see if they would allow visitor parking? https://www.anglowelsh.co.uk/Locations/Bases/Trevor Edited October 10, 2018 by Ray T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHS Posted October 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 We have parked there in the past, but I thought that car park is short term only now. The area I’m talking about is mentioned on the Pontcycliite website. It’s marked on Google but appears as a (presumably now demolished) factory. Is that car park finished now?

We were there earlier in the year on the way back from relatives and stopped to walk the dog. The big new car park was complete then, but not being used. As an aside, we wked out on the aqueduct while there, much scarier than crossing by boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJay Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Some years ago, when a friend was joining us for a few days from Trevor, Anglo-Welsh were happy for her to leave her car in their car park. There was a charge, but it was very modest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHS Posted October 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 An update following our Trip to Trevor The old car park (that has toilets and the elsan) is now for disabled badge holders only. This is not well signed and seems to be being abused. The new enormous car park now appears on the google map image. It is just north of Trevor basin. It is £3 per day but there’s a £40 fine for overnight parking, so no use for us. We had a lovely cake at the Pontcysyllite Chapel Tea Rooms, they have a car park (marked on google maps as Read’s) that they lock at night and arranged to leave my brother’s car for 3 days at a total cost of £5. They may not do this in high season, but were advertising it at £2 per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
