Vyrnwy Aqueduct is a five-arched clay-lined aqueduct which carries the Montgomeryshire Canal over the river Vyrnwy. It was designed by John Dadford, canal engineer of Cardiff, between 1794-6 and built by J Simpson and W Haseldine of Shrewsbury.
The weight of the clay led to reinforcement with cast iron tie-bars and beams to prevent collapse.
Vyrnwy Aqueduct is a grade II listed structure.
