Full description
Pearce, P., 2004, Archaeological Recording on the Tale Valley Water Meadow System, Escot, East Devon (Report - Evaluation). SDV319640.
In 2004 Exeter Archaeology investigated the nature of the watercourses & associated earthworks in the water meadow system to the east of the River Tale. An overspill sluice was located on the western side of the leat to the north of a small stone bridge that crossed the leat. The brick sluice was used to regulate the water level in the leat. The portal was 1.84m wide x at least 0.75m high with a slot for boards which had been filled in at a later date.
