Pontcysyllte Panorama

This is the view looking West, from the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct near Llangollen. Designed by Robert Telford and built between 1795 and 1805 as part of the Ellesmere Canal. The aqueduct is 1007ft long, stands 126ft high, has 19 arches which each have a span of 45ft.The "Trough" which the canal boats pass along is 11ft 10 in wide 5ft 3 in deep.
I'm not sure how this pano will look as it is 3 shots stitched together.

Thank you for all your kind comments and stars yesterday, they are very much appreciated even though I have not had a chance to answer you all personally.
