A great afternoon and seeing so many kids on the water gave us all so much hope for the future of the Swansea Canal. From Martin Davies, Swansea Canal Society.

Work Party at Trebanos Terminus 30th July: Here are some photos of us working to clear beer cans in the Trebanos terminus by Pontardawe Playing fields and removing the litter and weeds from the railed area at Herbert Street, Pontardawe. From Martin Davies, Swansea Canal Society.





Mon & Brec

From Bernard Illman



Trail Boat ‘Edith Elizabeth’: Refurbishment of the boat is nearing completion thanks to a lottery grant of £5000.
Crumlin Arm: The quest for water on the Crumlin Arm, after the initial survey by volunteer Lindsay, is being supported by Caerphilly and Welsh Water, the later have been checking for "miss connections" and testing water quality with a view to reconnecting the underground water at manor Road to the Canal. However, water is urgently needed at "Wysomes Wharf", further up, to be able to run Iswyln Canal Association's Trip Boat. Plenty of water goes under the Canal at Pontywaun but an innovative way of delivering it into the Canal, like a Water Wheel, is required. This would be an interesting project for a volunteer with time and know-how in conjunction with Caerphilly C.B.C. 
The Llangynidr Show: is on Sunday 25th August.
The Duck Race: is on Monday 26th August.
2014: You may think this is a long way off but a Five Locks Rally is being planed for the weekend before the August Bank Holliday, and a Canal-a-Thon.for September 14th.
