Aqueduct Homepage


One of a number of loco wheels set into the ground at points along the Silkin Way, which was designated as a long-distance (well 13 miles, anyway) path through the middle of Telford new town in the 1970s. The name is in honour of John (Lord) Silkin, Minister for Planning and Local Government in the Labour government of the mid 1970s.
