Junction with the Prees Branch, Llangollen Canal
Junction with the Prees Branch, Llangollen Canal
A boat makes the sharp turn into the Prees Branch from the main line of the Llangollen Canal. The branch is now navigable for just over a mile to a marina, but once it extended further to serve lime kilns at the village of Quina Brook. The unrestored end is now a nature reserve.
