Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Union Canal feeder enters the canal at Lin's Mill. Water for the canal comes from Cobbinshaw Reservoir NT0158, via the Murieston and Linhouse Waters, and then the River Almond. The canal feeder leaves the Almond at Midcalder 498557 and follows the valley 503059 in a narrow feeder channel 788842, 790639, losing height at a slower rate than the river until it joins the canal here. The weir at Midcalder is at about 100 m a.s.l.; when the river gets to Lin's Mill it is down to about 50 m a.s.l., while here the elevation is about 73m. The conservation of the feeder water's height must have been vital in allowing the contour canal to cross the steep valley of the Almond. |
