A drainage channel on the north side of the road is part of a system supplying the artificial lake in the grounds of Tredegar House. The lake is fed from the Ebbw River. Excess water then flows through a spillway http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/334718 before leaving the House grounds and flowing towards the camera along this channel. A few metres behind the camera http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2449995 the water enters an underground conduit on its way back to the Ebbw.
