According to another contributor who provides a close look at the weir Image, this mere was created less than 15 years ago by raising the water level in a marsh. It is thus a very shallow mere, no more than a couple of metres deep, although some 30ha in area. Any outflow - and it will usually be minimal - eventually joins the River Weaver.
