Ash Aqueduct, Ash, Surrey, UKMore information:
The Basingstoke Canal runs east west from the Greywell Tunnel at Greywell in Hampshire to the River Wey. It crosses the Blackwater Valley on an embankment. The River Blackwater used to flow under the embankment in a culvert. Following the construction of the relief road, the Basingstoke Canal now crosses the River Blackwater via the spectacular Ash Aqueduct. The aqueduct was completed and officially opened in 1995. Bats that used to roost in the culvert now live in a purpose-built bat house on a nearby island.
