The left fork to the millpond is now very overgrown and I would say not navigable at all by even a small cruiser.

Perhaps somone has some recent pics? I may have some but as I'm at work at the mo I'll have to look later this evening...

I seem to recall there was a threadabout this last year, so again, will have to do a bit of digging for you. What we dont want to do is tell you its all fine, then you have a prob and hold us responsible! Smile

Well as an owner and a hirer I keep a keen eye on depths in both capacities.

No harm in having a little explore if you keep your eyes open, go slow and use your brain.

The sign is no longer there.

It use to be past the Raising Sun by about 150 feet and on the bank where the house is with the willow trees.
I have a picture some where but can not find it now.

I certainly wouldn't go there in a hire boat after seeing what it is like,I think Griff has been there in BA and I have seen the Wherry Hartor there too but think that came back the same way it went up.

Gary - surely you know by now that I am a pen and paper girl  tounge-in-cheek

Actually, I love getting my hands dirty in the garden - no gloves for me! But dredging...... yuk! Still, Paul would be there with his camera and it would turn into some sort of mud wrestling event!

Fundraiser maybe?! lol

changing the subject slightly; has anyone heard of the mill pond at horstead being haunted, I've heard the village has 3 ghosts and one is a woman who drowned herseld in the pond, and she can be seen standing in the water.
Not that I'm supersticious, it is interesting though, just wonder if anyone has had any experiences of ghosts in the area?

Funny thing happened on the way to the forum this evening, earlier I replied with a picture of the lock and it was there, now it is not, if I have been modded, tell me.
