The ledge is about 250 yards long, in a direction parallel to the course of the river, and 100 yards wide; the soundings upon it are irregular, the least depth found being 9 feet at low water springs, which was at a spot a little more than 200 yards from the right (south-eastern) bank of the river. There is also a patch of 11 feet, 180 yards from the same bank.
