A view from the old railway embankment of a recently cleaned weir between the New Cut on the far side and a slightly repositioned (because of the railway) original course of the River Stour. Beyond is the grade II listed cast-iron bridge dated 1813 carrying Ashen Road over the New Cut. The view is from just about on the Suffolk - Essex border, which follows the original course of the river. The New Cut was made as a mill stream, but for most of its length takes the usual main flow of the river now. It is not too clear in which direction water flows over the weir when levels are higher, but probably from the near side to the far side - there is no provision for downstream scour on the near side.

Ashen Road is carried over the River Stour on this cast iron bridge erected in 1813. This bridge was erected only 34 years after the 1st cast iron bridge to be built at Coalbrookdale. It consists of 3 elliptical arches and the soffits of the arches have cast iron ribs. There is another view of the bridge at Image Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1194234 The market town of Clare is Suffolk’s smallest town.
