This lonely spot is the present end of navigation on the section of Montgomery canal that is connected to the main canal system. You can just make out the barrier under the bridge. There is a small boatyard here on a short side arm, which is also where boats have to turn round. Beyond the bridge the canal looks in very good order so maybe boats will be allowed through soon.
