Barley Brook Street which links Gidlow Lane and Hodges Street certainly covers the stream ,one of the houses on Gidlow Lane had recurrent flooding in the cellar and on investigation it proved to by the stream causing it when is swell.



This is about where Barley Brook was visible at the bottom of Diggle Street.I think you can see part of the arch that may have been part of the culvert.



Just on the field a manhole cover that almost certainly is for access to Barley Brook.
