Modern mill leat.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts the tail-race from Ballaughton Mill forming a leat parallel to the River Dhoo and extending 330m, at which point it was augmented by water from two streams flowing from the west, before continuing a further 150m to power Pulrose Mill.


The entire course of the River Dhoo has been altered following the development of National Sports Centre and Pulrose power station, following the former course of the leat for part of its length, and the leat no longer survives above ground.


The grid reference relates to the midpoint of the former leat for reference purposes.
