Dist:1.4km southeast<br/>The River Aire drops, usually by a foot or so, at this weir east of Beal Bridge and a lock on the south bank keeps the river navigable. The slightly widened stretch of river below the weir is used as a water skiing venue. There are the remains of redundant sluices or floodgates at the southern end of the weir.
