Progress on £14m Montgomery Canal restoration project
Wales Office Minister, Dame Nia Griffith, has been in Welshpool and Llanymynech to see how work is progressing on a major project to restore the Montgomery Canal. The scheme, which is being delivered in partnership by Powys County Council and Glandŵr Cymru (the Canal and River Trust in Wales), has received £13.94 million from the UK Government as part of its Levelling Up programme. Dame Nia viewed improvements that have been made to Y Lanfa, in Welshpool, the home of the town's library and the Powysland Museum, before visiting Wern, near Pool Quay, and then Llanymynech. At Wern, contractors working for Glandŵr Cymru are creating a new pond alongside the canal for protected species of aquatic plants and other wildlife. And at Llanymynech, work has begun on a new bridge which will take Carreghofa Lane over the canal, instead of through it. Wales Office Minister Nia Griffiths said: 'It's fantastic to see the huge progress that's being made to restore the Montgomery Canal and preserving our industrial heritage for generations to come. 'Funding from the UK Government has enabled this ambitious plan to be delivered, creating jobs, supporting the tourist industry, and restoring vital wildlife habitats.' Before seeing work on the canal restoration project, Dame Nia also visited Welshpool-based manufacturer CastAlum, which received a Business Growth Grant through Powys County Council last year worth £25,000. It put the money it received through the grant scheme, which was backed by £1.2 million from the UK Government's Shared Prosperity Fund, towards the cost of updating two of its die-cast machines, as part of a wider refurbishment programme. 'It was great having the opportunity to show Dame Nia around two projects in Powys last week which have benefitted from UK Government funding,' said councillor James Gibson-Watt, Powys County Council's Cabinet Member for a More Prosperous Powys. 'CastAlum was one of 71 Powys companies that we were able to support over the last two years thanks to the Shared Prosperity Fund, while the Levelling Up funding is helping transform the prospects of the Montgomery Canal, its ecology and the communities living alongside it.' Richard Harrison, principal project manager at Glandŵr Cymru added: 'It was fantastic to welcome Dame Nia to the canal to show her the work that's taking place to restore it. "We are making good progress on the restoration as we look to make the improvements that will ensure the sustainable long-term future of the canal so it can continue to benefit both people and nature.' The National Lottery Heritage Fund has also contributed £164,000 towards the cost of the work on Y Lanfa, while the Welsh Government put £140,000 towards the refurbishment of the canalside cottages on the same site, as part of its Transforming Towns programme. Work on Aberbechan Aqueduct, near Newtown, was also backed with a Historic Building Grant from Cadw. SWG Group, based in Welshpool, has almost completed the works on Y Lanfa. The library is expected to reopen in its usual home, on the ground floor, in September, while the Powysland Museum is likely to reopen, on the first floor, towards the end of 2025 or in early 2026. The library is temporarily based in the nearby Canalside Cottages.

REVELOT's Limited Edition Durian Watch Is Here & It's Bold, Spiky & Proudly Malaysian
Now this does NOT stink! Introducing REVELOT's Limited Edition Hexmariner Durian Watch – a bold nod to Malaysia's most iconic and controversial fruit. Love it or hate it, the durian is loud, proud, and unforgettable – just like this watch. Inspired by the nation's obsession, REVELOT turns the King of Fruits into a stylish statement piece that's cheeky, bold, and uniquely local. Where Sharp Flavour Meets Even Sharper Design True to its inspiration, the watch is spiked with personality. Finished in rich green and yellow tones, the durian-green dial features a geometric texture that echoes the fruit's thorny silhouette, while yellow lumed hexagonal indices nod to its golden flesh. The chapter ring is etched with 'KING OF FRUITS', wrapping the dial in a playful wink to those in the know. A durian-green ceramic bezel with yellow lumed markers frames the design, while a lumed miniature durian perched on the second hand delivers a final, irreverent touch to this layered homage. A Campaign With Bite The campaign visuals extend the watch's duality into a compelling narrative, starring Malaysian model and actress Nia Atasha. A modern style muse known for her fearless edge and cultural fluency, Nia brings a magnetic presence to the frame. Shot in an opulent fine-dining setting, the imagery pairs luxury with levity, navigating the ritual of eating durian with the poise of couture. She wears a striking neon gown by Syomirizwa Gupta, a designer celebrated for bold colour and culturally layered storytelling, adding a distinctly Malaysian elegance to the surreal setting. The mood is rich and cinematic, blending sensuality with a touch of irony, as the familiar is reframed through a lens of high fashion. A Collector's Piece With A Cultural Pulse The Hexmariner Durian Watch isn't a novelty; it's a study in nuance, a quiet provocation that reminds us that cultural icons don't need to be polished to be powerful. But when elevated with contemporary design and precision, it becomes a collector's piece that refuses to blend in. The Limited Edition Hexmariner Durian Watch will be available starting 18th July 2025, at an Early Bird price of RM1,388, with a regular retail price of RM1,688. Available in limited quantities on and at selected Timekeeper stores.
