We will keep left where the short arm known as Wormalds Cut diverges to the right alongside the wedge shaped building with the tall end tower.

This is the only winding point above Castle Mills Lock and narrowboats proceeding further will need to reverse back to this point to wind.

The top of that tower has am intriguing mechanism jutting out, perhaps used in the past to lift materials up to doors on the upper levels if this was used as a warehouse.

That’s the full length of Wormalds Cut which diverges from the River Foss in York.
