Crumlin Arm canal sign, Risca
The sign on the Temperance Road http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2238594 side of Navigation Road records in Welsh and English the history of this part of the former Monmouthshire and Brecon canal. The English text states:
The Crumlin Arm runs for 16 km from Cwmcarn to Newport. Opened in 1796 from Crumlin, it was worked until the 1940s. Today's journeys are made for leisure. Enjoy your visit.
