This is another local example of a glacial melt-water channel. The poorly-consolidated glacial detritus that filled it has gradually settled down, leaving a sharp-edged dry valley. Curiously, like many other such features in the area, a parish boundary runs along it - in this case the boundary between Moylgrove and Bayvil. Ancient boundaries generally followed water courses.
