Notes about this historic site

1 A complex of ditches, which appear to have been engineered to manage water flow across a large area defined by a loop of the River Tame are evident on aerial photographs. Early maps indicate that there were a series of sluices upstream and downstream of the site would have provided an ability to control water flow through the area. A bank is evident beside the river which may be recent flood prevention measures.
