The name of the waterway south of Pevensey Bridge which is a continuation of Pevensey Haven. Boats were able to navigate this until the mid 17th century when a new sluice gate was built that bought to an end Pevensey's role as a port. The waterway turns east here which suggests a medieval extension caused by the eastward movement of a shingle bank.
