Dundas Aqueduct

The aqueduct is near Monkton Combe, Somerset, and is about 2+1⁄2 miles (4 km) south-east of the city of Bath.

The aqueduct is 150 yards (137.2 m) long with three arches built of Bath Stone, with Doric pilasters, and balustrades at each end.

The short stretch of the Somerset Coal Canal still in water forms Brassknocker Basin, used for boat moorings, cycle hire and a cafe,[6] and is next to Dundas Wharf where the small tollhouse, warehouse and crane still stand.

At the opposite (Wiltshire) end of the aqueduct a wharf was constructed serving the Conkwell stone quarries.

[8] Between 2002 and 2004, further restoration was undertaken that included replacing engineering bricks, which had been used by the Great Western Railway to make earlier repairs, with Bath Stone to match the original work.

The canal boat in the picture can turn left to moorings on the only remaining section of the Somerset Coal Canal or turn right to traverse the last few miles of the canal into the city of Bath . The walls of the Aqueduct can be seen on the left and right; the river and railway are unseen far below.
