  • The North Walsham and Dilham Canal Trail
    The Griffon Guide The North Walsham and Dilham Canal Trail This trail explores some of the most accessible and interesting parts of the North Walsham and Dilham Canal. The canal was built in 1825 to allow wherries to transport offal from Wayford up to Antingham Bone Mills, alongside other cargo such as manure, grain and coal. It includes six locks to raise the level by 18 metres over its 13.2 km length. It was not a financial success and was sold to a trader with a fleet of wherries in 1886, then resold to G Cubitt and G Walker in 1921, who formed the North Walsham Canal Company. Parts of it are being cleared and restored by the North Walsham and Dilham Canal Trust. 1. Ebridge Mill Happisburgh Road, North Walsham NR28 9NJ (map ref OS 630329) The earliest records of a watermill on the site dates back to 1537, when Everbupe's watermill was let to William Hogan for £4 13s 4d by the Bishop of Norwich. The now derelict mill is five storeys high and was originally built over the River Ant, which later became the canal. It was used as a flour mill by Cubbitt and Walker from 1869 -1966, then converted to a provender mill. The mill was sold to Duffields and closed down in 1998. For a detailed history of the mill and a wherryman's family diary, visit the Norfolk Mills site at http://www.norfolkmills.co.uk/Watermills/ebridge.ht ml. The canal and pond around Ebridge Mill has recently been restored by the Canal Trust, and now makes a very attractive picnic spot, with seating and a mown grass area.

  • Effects of Abstraction on Salinity Regime – Ant Broads and Marshes
    Effects of abstraction on salinity regime – Ant Broads and Marshes Summary • This paper looks at a 17 page report produced by Mr Linford-Wood of the Environment Agency, which considers the potential relationship between water abstraction and increased salinity. • The Ant Valley fens are highly vulnerable to saline incursion; salinity having been demonstrated by various researchers to have a negative impact upon the distribution of rare plant species, SAC Annex 1 fen communities and uncommon species of invertebrate. • There are some indications of an ongoing upward trend in salinity in the Ant catchment with this trend having been identified by the early 1990s. • Groundwater and surface water abstraction has a direct effect on river flows. • The EA consider that the effect of real fully licenced abstraction has been to reduce freshwater river flows in the Ant system by approximately 5%, however this value is disputed. • Other hydrologists suggest that the in-combination effects of abstraction are considerably in excess of the suggested 5% of river flow quoted by the EA. • In some of the Ant floodplain fens, the reduction in diffuse flow through the model cells under ‘average’ conditions is above 10% and in some cases up to 50%. At low flows, the figure is in excess of 50% in parts of Catfield Fen, Broad Fen, Reedham Marshes and Snipe Marsh. • Flows in the River Bure upstream of the confluence with the Ant are reduced by as much as 50% at Q95; and between -10 and -20% at Q10 conditions. It is clear that the very considerable reduction in modelled flows in the Bure under all flow conditions will be significantly increasing the likelihood of saline incursion into the Ant.
