The world’s only rotating boat lift - the famous Falkirk Wheel 😊 #falkirk #visitfalkirk #CanalMagic | Scotdrone

The famous Falkirk Wheel at Tamfourhill, Falkirk which quickly links together the Union Canal and the Forth and Clyde Canal. Did you know that the 2 canals used to be linked previously further east at Lock 16 in Camelon? The 2 canals were linked by a complex series of 11 traditional locks which took the best part of a full working day to navigate. This link between the canals was abandoned in the 1930s and built over, although you can still see remnants of the old locks if you know where to look
