The Sow/Penk floodplain near Baswich, Stafford
The Sow/Penk floodplain near Baswich, Stafford
The rough land by the rivers is often waterlogged or flooded, so is only occasionally used for grazing. The red-brick farmhouse is on Thomas Priory Farm. It is to the left of that where the River Penk joins the River Sow, and some interesting embankments divert Kingston Brook's course to the Sow. A look at the satellite images is worthwhile.
