Man-made waterfall at Llandogo
This stream rising in the nearby Cleddon area falls steeply through woods into the river Wye at the village of Llandogo. It appears likely that waterpower was harnessed at this point although little of the original structure remains. Llandogo is probably most famous for ship building. The "Llandogger Trow" pub in central Bristol recalls the time when flat-bottomed trows built in Llandogo sailed the rivers Wye and Severn.
