Isn't it helpful when you are actually given the grid ref on site! The grid ref in the picture is the mid point of the chunker beneath the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation - behind the photographer.

"A chunker is a wooden channel - or pipe - built to take streams beneath the navigation itself and may be unique to the area." - LinkExternal link . The chunker collapsed and had to be rebuilt in 2010 - see this write-up: LinkExternal link .
