Waterfall near Gilwern

This waterfall is man-made. It is formed by the overflow from the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. The outfall is flowing into the River Clydach. If you look carefully you can just see the abutment of the aqueduct that carries the Canal over the river. The waterfall can be reached via a precarious walk up the River Clydach embankment.
