The water going over the road with a little foot bridge is nice enough, but the grounds for the picnic area had zero benches or tables. Definitely not worth going out of the way for. It was a quick stop for us.
Parking area full of large pot holes,only space for a couple of cars with great care. Lovely steam for the dog to play in
Pretty little spot, well worth passing through. Also the a beautiful abandoned bridge adjacent to the ford.
It's a beautiful stop to stretch your legs
