Falkirk Wheel

19/08/06 | by chris [mail] | Categories: PICTURES, SCITECH, Technology

The Falkirk Wheel is the world's only rotating Boat Lift and is used to connect the Forth & Clyde and Union canals in central Scotland.

Designed to replace a series of lock gates built in the 19th Century - long since demolished and replaced by housing - the Falkirk Wheel is the showpiece of the Millennium Link project where coast-to-coast navigation of the canals has been re-established for the first time in since the 1960's.
