Swansea Canal Mileposts
Swansea Canal Milepost (Replica) in outdoor display area
The Swansea canal was 16 miles in length, from Swansea Docks to Abercraf. All along its length there were distance markers at ¼ mile intervals.
The full distance in miles from Swansea Docks was shown at the top of the post, below the line were ¼ mile markers, 1 mark for ¼ mile, 2 for ½ mile and 3 for ¾ mile. This replica post would have stood at 10¼ miles from Swansea, north of Pontardawe.
The milepost can be seen in the outdoor display area of Clydach Heritage Centre
