Fourteen Locks, Flight of locks in Rogerstone, Newport, Wales
The Fourteen Locks system contains a series of connected waterways that rise 160 feet over 800 yards through the Welsh landscape near Newport.
The Monmouthshire Canal locks, completed in 1799, transported industrial materials between Newport and regional manufacturing centers through a network of waterways.
The canal system demonstrates the engineering methods of the Industrial Revolution through its design of embanked ponds, pounds, sluices, and water management structures.
The Fourteen Locks Canal Centre provides exhibits, walking paths, guided tours, and information about the waterway's function in South Wales transportation history.
Each of the fourteen individual locks operates independently without shared gates, making this structure a true flight rather than a conventional lock staircase.
