Water Control, (1 pip)

This is Greylake and the sluice gates that control water levels on the King's Sedgemoor Drain. This man made waterway is only 9.8 miles long, but it takes the water of the River Cary across King's Sedgemoor before it accepts the waters of the Eighteen-Foot Rhyne , Langacre Rhyne, Sowy River and also taking the waters of Chedzoy New Cut Before flowing into the River Parrett and on to Bridgwater Bay.

It has become very important for the water table on this part of the Somerset Levels

The pip shows the nature reserve from the same location

Large view recommended. A Nice Friday and a good weekend to all !
