Tonight, Frank takes you somewhere quietly extraordinary: a canal that moves through the sky above the River Dee in northeast Wales. The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct — completed in 1805 — is the longest aqueduct in Great Britain and the highest canal aqueduct in the world, its iron trough held aloft by eighteen stone pillars rising from the valley floor.

In this slow, unhurried sleep story, Frank traces the origins of that remarkable structure — the Welsh place name rooted in an old township, the ambitions of the Ellesmere Canal, and the two engineers, Thomas Telford and William Jessop, who chose boldness over convention and carried water across a deep river gorge at a height that still surprises people today.

This is a podcast for the end of the day. No urgency, no rush — just a calm, steady voice moving through history, geography, and the quiet details of old places. Whether you struggle to sleep, simply want something gentle to wind down with, or love the idea of a bedtime podcast built around the world's slower corners, Fall Asleep with Frank is made for you.

Put your phone face-down, close your eyes, and let the story carry you across the valley — one slow pillar at a time. A calming episode to help you relax and fall asleep.
