Meeting of the waters

Cowbridge is where several tracts of water meet in a small area. To the left of this panorama taken from one of the footbridges is West Fen Drain, with Frith Bank Drain not too far off. Ahead lies Stone Bridge Drain and behind lies Maud Foster Drain. To the right is a spur, Cowbridge Drain, now blocked off at the tenth tee of Boston Golf Club, which once allowed boats to navigate between the Hobhole and Maud Foster Drains. Further north is an aqueduct which is fascinating in itself, although seemingly no longer navigable below Image A great little walkabout - and a naturalists hot spot too.
