Weir


One evening, Leigh and I took a walk to the weir via Beeston Lock which is completely shut whilst the River is in flood. With such a backlog of debris BW have their work cut out at clearing it up.

As you can see the indicator board (bottom left of the photo below) is showing red so boats currently cannot get on to or off the River.


The weir was quite breathtaking and the charging water appeared more like the sea than river....



The sound of crushing water was immense...
