This section of the Roman canal is impressive: based on the sinter deposits visible here, archaeologists have calculated that the canal was in use for at least 190 years. The line capacity was reduced by a third due to the lime deposits. You can see that very well here.

At the station is a piece of canal where you can see the limescale deposits very well.
It's also a good place to take a break in the shade.
