  • Location description The site is 10 metres down from the outfall pipe in Foxwood Beck. 3 CSOs feed in, coming under the road and into the Beck. The CSO's are 1. Devonshire Crescent 2. Lidget Park Road. 3. 3. Foxwood (109 No 2 ) The Beck starts from the outfall pipe which is at the bottom of steep banks next to a carpark and bottle bank. Rubbish blows down here and also can be fly tipping. The beck flows into Waterloo Lake, going underground after about 300 metres and flowing into the lake by the Lakeside cafe and our testing site Waterloo Lake Cafe.
