Description

As you approach a private estate, you will encounter a set of culverts for a driveway, followed shortly by a small low footbridge. At low flows it may be possible to boat through the culvert and duck under the footbridge. At moderate to higher flows, it will be necessary to portage. Carry as quickly and discretely as possible, portaging both at once. Putting in immediately after the footbridge, you will have a (very short) rocky rips before you enter a pond in the yard of this estate. Please be careful to skirt wide around their ironwork sculptures in the pond as you head to the short dam which is the outlet for the pond.
