Viewed across the canal pound.
Fourteen Locks Canal Centre, Newport

This is situated on Crumlin branch of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal on the outskirts of Newport.
The fourteen locks are part of the Cefn flight that dates from 1799 and is located to the north of the M4 motorway. These locks are numbers 8 to 21 on the Crumlin Branch.
There is a visitor centre and car park adjacent to a large canal pound with a slipway.
The four locks, numbers 17 to 20, just below the pound were restored in 2010/11.
