Ducketts Mead, Roydon, CM19 5EG, United Kingdom
 

Dragons Wood is on the Lee and Stort Navigation (River Stort - Main Line) near to Liverton.

The Lee and Stort Navigation (River Stort - Main Line) was built by Exuperius Picking Junior and opened on 17 September 1888. Orginally intended to run to Presbury, the canal was never completed beyond Derby. In Cecil Wright's "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" he describes his experiences passing through Teignbridge Aqueduct during the war.
