Description
Watercourse, built c.1830, runs from west to north-east. Lined with squared random course walls. Terminates at either end with coursed walls with soldier coping before entering culverts.
Appraisal
This watercourse houses the stream that runs through the centre of the village, providing a picturesque area marked as The Grove on historical maps. The construction of the stone walls was an endeavour to formalise the landscape of the town's central green. The result is an attractive leisure area that contributes to the built and natural heritage of the locality.
