Cotswold Canals in Pictures

River Frome and site of Lockham Aqueduct

The Stroudwater Canal used to pass over the river Frome at this point, with the river using a 'syphon' aqueduct.

For Phase 1b, the canal will use the river up until Whitminster Lock, where the canal will revert to its original course.
