Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal
The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal is a small network of canals in South Wales. For most of its 35-mile length it runs through the Brecon Beacons National Park, and its present rural character and tranquillity belies its original purpose as an industrial corridor for coal and iron, which were brought to the canal by a network of tramways and/or railroads, many of which were built and owned by the canal company.
