Sluice on the New River

Image: © Rob Candlish Taken: 25 Jul 2010

This sluice near Great Amwell is used to control the flow of water in the New River. On certain large scale Ordnance Survey maps it is incorrectly marked as a footbridge. As can be seen it is heavily fenced and there is no public access from the riverbank.
