SK4385 : Not the River Rother, Woodhouse Mill

taken 18 years ago, near to Aughton, Rotherham, England

Not the River Rother, Woodhouse Mill
Not the River Rother, Woodhouse Mill
Although this looks like part of the River Rother, the course of the river is now a couple of hundred metres to the west. The course of the river was moved in the 1950's to alleviate frequent flooding problems. This bit was left behind to provide local factories with a source of water in the event of fire. The photo looks south-west towards Woodhouse. An easy walk from this square can be taken to Rother Valley Country Park.
