I explored the gateway yesterday and came across the matching gateway, in line, about 3m from the river. This other gateway is the one we, as kids used to get in to the BDA mills. Got some good pics of them, the 'pillbox' and Pollard bridge. Have tried to 'add attachment' without success, anyone help please?

I didn't know that pillbox was there until now.I had to look on Bing maps where it washttp://binged.it/Ru2bsDIt's perched up pretty high by the canal retaining wall.
