Oakley Beck culvert, east of Oakley Green, West Auckland

Just to the southeast of the Gaunless abutments, a 19th century stone culvert survives, through which the Oakley Beck flows. On the south side there are two metal hooks and a chain above the arch suggesting a metal gate was previously hung from them to prevent stock wandering through the culvert. (1)
