The Sandy and Beaver Canal

This waterway was completed in 1848 to connect the Ohio Canal System with the Ohio River at Glasgow. Neither financially or technically successful, the canal saw little thru traffic and was soon abandoned. Many locks remain in Little Beaver Valley.

Marker is at the intersection of Midland Road (Pennsylvania Route 68) and Main Street, on the right when traveling east on Midland Road.
