Notes
  • Significance: In the construction of the Canal at Furnace Run, and expensive stone culvert was placed to carry the stream under the canal. Successive periods of high flow caused the culvert extensive damage, and eventual failure. At this time, an aqueduct was though a viable solution allowing heavier flow in the stream channel. The Board of Public Locks entered into a contract with Moseley and Co. of Cincinnati to construct a wrought iron aqueduct )from his patent) of forty foot span with a twenty one foot waterway, four feet in depth. The aqueduct would be placed on heavy cut stone masonry abutments and towers provided by the state. The aqueduct when completed was though to be the most economical and durable solution to the particular problem posed by Furnace Run. Instead, the aqueduct proved to be incompatible with the adverse conditions existing where the canal crosses Furnace Run.
