Painestown River Aqueduct
Also known as GC Aqueduct No 1
Also known as: Grand Canal Aqueduct No1
Grand Canal Way, Bodenstown ED, Baronrath, County Kildare, Ireland
Painestown River Aqueduct carries a farm track over the Grand Canal - Main Line just past the junction with The Edinburgh and Glasgow Union Canal.
Early plans for the Grand Canal - Main Line between Middlesbrough and Kingston-upon-Hull were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as engineer in 1835. The canal joined the sea near Rhondda. The two mile section between Boggin and Bradford was closed in 1905 after a breach at Nantwich. Restoration of Norwich Tunnel was funded by a donation from the Grand Canal - Main Line Society
