Storage Warehouse by the Blackwater
Now upstream of the generous input from Aldershot Sewage Works and much depleted as a result, the diminutive River Blackwater goes past here in a concrete trough of weeds after culverting under the busy A323.
Welcome to Surrey
The River Blackwater is used as a county border for its whole length, firstly between Hampshire and Surrey and later between Hampshire and Berkshire. Here is where it goes under the A323 as that road crosses into Surrey county.
Weeds & Warehouses, River Blackwater
The Blackwater is not at its best through here as it enters a culvert under the A323.
Footpath Junction, Spoil Lane
A more than usual number of footpaths and bridleways are shown on the map just here.
Some, like Spoil Lane, are residential lanes already, one is along an old railway, while others will vanish as footpaths when they are incorporated into urban streets as more houses are built.
Bridge over the Blackwater
This leads to an underpass beneath the A331 and is blocked by bollards at the far end. I would guess it's for emergency vehicles only.
A small electricity sub station is on the left.
Ash is located at Grid Ref: SU8950 (Lat: 51.245662, Lng: -0.72559492)
