Archaeology Notes

NS87NE 31.06 85276 79252

For tunnel (to N) and locks (to E), see NS 87NE 31.05 and NS87NE 31.07, respectively.

This basin in the the Edinburgh and Glasgow Union Canal (NS87NE 31.00: LIN 18) was built as part of the Millennium Link project to provide waiting space at the S end of the tunnel NS87NE 31.05. It thus forms part of the southern approach to the Falkirk Wheel (NS88SE 198).
