Visited with The Kwan. Discovered by MaybeNot1330


This is one that's been on the books for a while. MaybeNot showed me the outfall before he fucked off to Spain and we set about finding the infall. After discovering that it was on private we decided the out fall was a waderZ job.

Because neither of us could be arse buying them, it wasn't until he buggered off that I've got round to it.

It a bit of a walk before you get to anything really worth seeing

But it's a quite nice double weir system

Which is fed by this

There are a few interesting mildly features upstream

and a few junctions

It got to this point and I'd been stooping and avoiding spiders for a while. We went into the RCP ahead, heading towards the light. We got about 100 meters in and my back and neck couldn't take it; we got out.

On the way out we looked at a few more features that we'd missed on the way in

and the gates home.

Not a bad little culvert. More to see than Xan's Pants and looks interesting when it's in flow. If it's been raining, stick to the right side of the outfall. Trust me!

Thanks for looking :thumb
