Canal Aqueduct It has been
bypassed by the creek that once flowed through it. The canal flowed across the top through
an earthen trench and later the C&O railroad on the towpath, but that is now also
relocated. Fine example of the stonework construction of an aqueduct. Location: Narrow
Passage.

James River at Buchanan. The Rt. 11
bridge is in the background with the suspension walkway bridge in the foreground. The
suspension bridge was constructed on the stonework of the 1800's covered bridge and
the canal boats docked along stonework which is still visible along the grass covered bank on the
right. Water level in canal days was much higher due to a dam below town.
