Fiddown Bridge carries the road from Bristol to Longworth over the River Suir just past the junction with The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal.
Early plans for the River Suir between Chelmsford and Wesspool were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1782. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by Charles Hunter.
