The basin lies on the Pontypool stretch of the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal in the Pontypool suburb of Pontymoile in the county borough of Torfaen and historic county of Monmouthshire in south Wales.
Originally a toll point, the canal narrows significantly as it approaches the basin. Junction Cottage is the old toll house, built in 1814 and is Grade II listed. The basin itself is a large expanse of water adjacent to the canal. It is used for turning narrowboats and filling up with water.
