Chirk Aqueduct is part of Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and the Llangollen Canal World Heritage site, which stretches from Chirk to the Horseshoe Falls in Llangollen itself. 1.43km of the canal leading through Chirk Bank to Gledrid Bridge is also an Scheduled Ancient Monument .

Not only is it canal architecture as it's finest, but it's also one of only places on our waterways where you can stand with one foot in England and one foot in Wales, as it straddles the border between the two countries.
