The three-arched Bath stone aqueduct turns an engineering crossing into a viewpoint. From the towpath you can grasp the canal’s height above the river and railway, then trace the connection to the former Somerset Coal Canal at Brassknocker Basin. It suits a longer canal walk beyond central Bath.
What to look for
The central stone arch spans the Avon below the canal.
Brassknocker Basin marks the junction with the former Somerset Coal Canal.
Dundas Wharf retains a former tollhouse, warehouse and crane.
Useful to know
Approach on the towpath and allow time to walk beyond the bridge to Brassknocker Basin.
Expect an outdoor visit exposed to rain and wind.
