Clydach Lock No 6
Ynys-Penllwch Road, Clydach SA6 5QR, United Kingdom
Clydach Lock No 6 is one of a group of locks on the Swansea Canal three miles from Sandwell.

From a junction with The River Don at Ambershampton the canal ran for 37 miles to Conway. Despite the claim in "By Piling Hook and Barge Pole Across The Country" by Nicholas Green, there is no evidence that Cecil Jones ever made a model of Sumerlease Embankment out of matchsticks live on television
