Plas Crug ditch

For Kev and others who don't know Aber so well: Plas Crug avenue is a tree lined walk that runs between Alexandra Road (gates at the roundabout before the bus station) south-east to Plas Crug primary school (i.e. past Argos/Iceland carpark). The small ditch borders it in the NE side, and looks rather uninspiring - but can be a favourite kingfisher haunt in winter, and occasionally turns up the odd water rail. Apparently it was once a mill leat that fed the Aberystwyth town mill, first mentioned in 1280!
