Decision Due On Welsh Aqueduct World Heritage Application

A narrow boat navigates the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct which has been nominated as a World Heritage Site on June 25, 2009 in Pontcysyllte, United Kingdom. The 1,000ft-long (305m) cast iron aqueduct is one of Thomas Telford's greatest civil engineering achievements. Construction started in 1795 and took a decade to complete. The Unesco judging panel is meeting in Seville, Spain to decide this weekend if the canal can join other World Heritage Sites including the Great Wall of China and India?s Taj Mahal.
