This cast-iron former aqueduct was built to carry the Rheola Brook across the Neath Canal. However, it is now dry and is used as a footbridge, and the Rheola Brook now passes under the canal a short distance beyond this aqueduct (See Image). It is a grade II listed building, listed because it is a good example of the cast-iron aqueducts made at Neath ironworks for the Neath Canal.
