In February 2008, the Environment Agency carried out survey and dredging work on the River Exe between Millers Bridge (SX914926) and Trews Weir (SX924915) which meant that the river level was lowered by between 1 and 2 metres. This is one of a set of pictures showing the river in such unusual circumstances. The pictures of the quay form a panorama showing some of the bedrock on which the quay was built.
Here is the stream bed of one leat with reduced flow
