I've seen them!
I'd definatly have to leave the Mrs at home for that one!
She was terrified when we did the Temple Balsall Ford Video!

And she ain't keen on the Great Alne Ford either as you have to turn 2 Corners IN the Ford to get out!

But Corwen is definatly on my List

I came accross another interesting ford, in Wales, that I might get to try again this weekend.

I've done it once before (with simply4x4) - you drive into a river/stream, turn right driving downstream for about 100 yds then turn left out onto the track. Clicky Piccy

When I did it, I was the tail-end-charlie and got delayed shutting the gate, so I did not see the line the others took, so I ended up running aground on a hidden rock mid stream - I managed to reverse off though and drive through to the end.

Clicky Link

The route is straight accross.
It is a little deeper on the south bank.
Carfull with the gate on the north bank.

Stick to the right of way.
Don't harras the sheep or poultry.
