At the time of the assessment there were only small pools of water at the site. The site has previously had a lot of litter but seems to have been cleared and bin provided. Few riffles and pools and little in stream habitat. A fair amount of over hanging vegetation still exists. The site is located below a very steep embankment of grazing land and would receive any runoff from this point.
