Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Outfall and weir from Blakemere Moss The 2000 copy of the Ordnance Survey 1:25000 map shows Blakemere Moss as an area of marshland, although later editions show the lake. After talking to a local gentleman I found out that the Forestry Commission had decided to flood the marsh and they built this concrete dam to retain the water. To quote the gentleman- "they did it to try and make it like it was thousands of years ago"! Unfortunately looking at the soil here I rather think it was under the sea then!
