Mill Stream
Dorchester
Historically man has harnessed and
shaped the river, realigned channels and used sluice controls to supply water
to mills and water meadows. The Dorchester Mill stream is a modified
channel which has been straightened and contained with artificial banks. Now it
has also become a valuable linear wildlife feature on the northern edge of the
town.
