Feildes Weir, Water control structure in Hoddesdon, Great Britain

Feildes Weir spans across the River Lea at the meeting point of River Lea and River Stort, marking the start of the Lower Lee.

The water management system underwent significant modifications in 1976 with the installation of a 29-meter wide thin-plate weir and three vertical-lift sluices.

The River Lea Angling Club and Ware Angling Club manage fishing activities in the weir pool, maintaining local fishing traditions.

Access to Feildes Weir is available through Rattys Lane from Hoddesdon via the A10 and A1170 roads, with Rye House station providing rail connectivity.

The structure incorporates a channel of the River Lee Flood Relief system, managing water flow with an average discharge of 4.4 cubic meters per second.
