It
is thought that the lock at Goring dates back to a flash weir way back
in the 16th century. Goring itself lies next to the village of
Streatley situated on the Berkshire bank, linked by a largely wooden
bridge across the river.
A couple of miles downstream, the river passes Hartslock nature reserve,
a chalk grassland site and home to some interesting wildflowers.
