Hi Andy 

Although I haven’t any detailed on-the-ground local knowledge it looks to me 
that the watershed is closer to Pottery Road rather than Hurst Road so the 
section in between these roads is correctly labelled but may be flowing the 
wrong way. The section labelled Thimblemill further west, beyond the 
Wolverhampton Road, perhaps shouldn’t be so labelled at all - it doesn’t appear 
to be named on old OS maps I have seen.

Hope this helps

Stephen
