The ford at Craymere Beck Road. Even in the drier weather, the stream still has a steady flow.

In summer this area will be impenetrable. Presumed to once have been the location of clay pits, the ground on the southwestern edge of Lumley and Irvin Woods, beside Mill Lane, is damp where it borders on the road and overgrown with bracken higher up. No Scots pines are growing here. Marked on OS maps as Pegg's Plantation this area once used to be part of the old Briston Common. It is now a privately owned woodland - privately owned but walkers are very welcome here. Under the stewardship of its owners several paths were opened up; some of the predominant Scots pines, planted during the 1960s, are being felled (marked with white paint) to allow more room and light for a more diverse vegetation. Young trees of various different species have been planted, and in order to provide habitats and shelter for wildlife not all dead wood is removed. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/786559 for more detailed information.
