Description

The crescentic shaped weir is built of stone, 140.2m long with an upstream slope and a vertical downstream face of approximately 1.2m. The crest is of 1.2m square stones with a capping of bullnosed cast iron sections in 2.75m lengths. The course of the river on the E side above the weir is extended to a stone lined pound with sluices before entering the canal. A gauging station has more recently been located above the junction at the head of the canal.
