The thickness of the foliage and the dark shadows on a sunny day make it hard to gauge the depth but at some points the rivulet runs as much as 100 feet below the track, passing through a steep sided ravine which is difficult of access today. When the original landscaping took place the idea was to create a romantic dingle that could be followed and crossed in several places. The Morgenau, a mere trickle today after an unusually dry spring, is normally a fast-flowing stream whose noisy babble was intended to contrast the lazy flow of the Teifi on the opposite side of the grounds.
