BIRTHDIR AQUEDUCT 1819 HEW 522 S198 022 {N52o 35’ 42.9” W 3o 11’ 9.5”}
This modest aqueduct about 45 feet long carries the Montgomeryshire Canal across a small stream just north of the Caer Howel iron bridge in a “box” made of cast iron plates. The designer was G. W. Buck. The landmark to look for on A483 is the Horseshoe Tavern. T he towpath goes across the uphill side of their back beer garden. Facing uphill, take a left turn onto the tow path and go a few hundred yards to find the aqueduct which is indicated by its iron ballasters.
