Full Description
A post-medieval ford was visible on the 1st and 3rd Edition Ordnance Survey maps. This was not seen on the 2014 MasterMap, though a footbridge is located a short distance to the west. The ford was not annotated on the 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey map, though its continued use into the 3rd Edition map implies it was still present. [1-4]
