Hiking

Also known as a washdyke, this deep, brick-lined basin was where the annual pre-shearing washing took place in full view of the public. It was restored in 2009 when railings were added to stop people falling in. Used regularly until the 1950s when chemical sheep-dipping became prevalent on farms, it was activated by villagers using a metal bung to dam the spring-fed stream on the morning of washing day, and letting it fill with water.
