Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Canal Overflow. The overflow is situated at the bottom lock on the Llangollen Canal at Grindley Brook. The photograph was taken in the evening on a long exposure to give this effect. The Llangollen Canal has a current on it of about half a mile an hour, creating a constant flow on the locks' overflows. This makes life difficult for boats entering or leaving the lower gates of the canal's locks due to the strong side currents created by the overflow streams.
