Like all other drainage ditches on this tidal section of the River Dee/Afon Dyfrdwy this unnamed one has a sluice gate mechanism to stop the high tides flooding the low lying land behind. The impressive 'Keep Out' sign is rendered pointless by the fact that there is nothing to stop you walking around the end of the railings. See Image
