| Site 4 Carding Mill Valley |
| Grid reference 447943 Looking Southeast |
| Why was the velocity of the stream lower at this site than at site 3? Compare the gradients of the two sites. Look at the shape of the stream channel and the bedload what would you expect the friction to be like at this site? |
| Why did some groups find that the bedload was larger and still very angular at this site compared to sites upstream? Have a look at some photographs of Ashes Hollow another valley on the Longmynd. |
