Rest by the Chess
This urban section of the Chess Valley Walk has some enjoyable stretches away from traffic by the river. There are frequent opportunities not to go any further. But we carried on because the seat was wet.

The Pheasant, quite pleasant
The view of the garden of the Pheasant pub from the south side of the River Chess. These boats are about as large as you would get on the river.

Weir on the River Chess
The weir is at the site of one of many former mills on the river. This is all there is to see now, as the mill house was demolished in the 1960s.

River Chess: Site of the former Cannon Mill
This weir and broken brickwork indicate the location of the former Cannon Mill, that is said to have been demolished in the 1960s. The flat body of water above the weir would have been the mill leat, and the water would have driven a mill wheel positioned in the brick recess below. There is a descriptive notice board nearby that describes it as Canon's Mill, but all the old Ordnance Survey mapping from 1878 onwards describes it as Cannon Mill, so the photographer has opted for the latter.
Incidentally the pink item above the weir that looks like a suspended animal carcase is in fact a children's play swing...
