Summary edit

Description
English: Cow Beck Damstones and Kirkstall Forge Goit How do you get one channel of water to cross another ? When Kirkstall Forge Goit was built it had to cross Cow Beck to supply water to the forge, so a small dam was built in the beck. The Goit comes from behind the photographer, and continued beyond the dam - a more recent concrete wall has blocked the Goit. The Beck comes down the valley from the left, over the dam and down to the River Aire 100m to the right.

I have taken the name "Cow Beck Damstones" from the 1905 Ordnance Survey 1:2500 map, republished by Alan Godfrey Maps. The modern map shows no name, just listing it as a weir.
