Sluice construction includes similar flanking walls, stonework of probably two building phases. Sluice gate mechanism probably a double form, not in use.
The weir created a head of water to be carried down the goit of Burley Mills built by Gott in 1799 (qv), the sluice gates controlled the volume of the water reaching the mill wheels.
