Avoncliff
This view looks West along the aqueduct over the Bath-Weymouth line. There was once a railway (about 3 foot gauge, and horse hauled) along the towpath to the right. There was an incline from a quarry in Westwood (behind the tall tree which stands out in the background), then the railway crossed the canal to terminate in a transshipment yard to the right of this view, adjacent to the present railway.
