A replacement milepost sponsored from the other side of the Atlantic. It's behind
what used to be Rising Sun, but has now closed.
Some way below this lock, the Newcastle Road crosses the canal on a bridge. The
bridge has a small tunnel for the boat horses and there are also the remains
of the wooden rollers that were fitted to prevent damage to the stonework by the
ropes.
Opposite this milepost is the yard of JD Narrowboats boatbuilders.
