Description
The Crumlin arm canal has varied habitat, mixed forest, pastures and scrubland on side of the valley. Houses alongside the canal often have bird feeders. Farmland encourages a diverse range of wildlife. Plenty to see at all times of the year. This flat walk along the disused Crumlin arm of the Monmouthsire canal is popular for cyclists and walkers. The area attracts a wide range of birds at anytime of the year. The canal recently has been relined due to leakage, this has benefited all forms of wildlife increasing the diversity.
