5 locks at Llangynidr, March 2024 (Mon' & Brec' Canal)

Friday 15th March 2024: The weather forecast suggested that Monday would be the best day this week, and it wasn't wrong! So I took off to Llangynidr to catch up with the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. The canal only has 6 locks along it's entire length, and 5 of them are here in Llangynidr, closely spaced, raising / lowering the water level some 48 feet from the top lock to the bottom one. Didn't see any narrowboats on the move, but there was some lovely birdsong and plenty of ducks around. Not to mention the fabulous scenery, and the locks themselves of course, which were constructed in 1799... yes, that's 225 years ago! I took my old Nikon D200 SLR camera with me (not used that one in years!), and although the battery packed up after a very short while, I did get some nice shots in, some of which I am including in the video. Weather permitting, I'll be out on the Brompton next time. 😊 Hope you enjoy the video!
