Footpath alongside the mill race, Hall Green
A mill race is a channel constructed to conduct water away from a stream or river to power the wheel of a watermill and then onwards to rejoin the main stream again. This path runs alongside the course of the mill race downstream from Foleshill Mill, along which the water flowed from the mill back into the River Sowe. Mill and mill race can be seen on the OS six inch map (1888-1913 series). There is no sign of them now. Just beyond the cast iron posts the path bridges the modern course of the Sowe, immediately downstream from where it was joined by the mill race. It then follows the course of the mill race to Mill House, an 18th century house SP3583 : Mill House & Egret Walk, Alderman's Green, Coventry.
