Chirk tunnel towpath
Photo taken from inside the Chirk Tunnel looking towards the aqueduct.
The tunnel lies on the Llangollen Canal, immediately northwards of the Chirk Aqueduct. It is 421 metres (460 yd) long and has a complete towpath inside. The tunnel is designed for a single standard narrowboat, so passing is not possible, and is straight enough to be able to see if a boat is already inside the tunnel. Boats are required to show a light. The towpath is dark, can be a bit uneven and very wet, so I'm not really happy about the strength of the fence.
The tunnel was constructed from 1794–1802.
