This ford can be found on Green Meadow Lane which is an otherwise no-through spur road from he A2057 in Goodworth Clatford, Hampshire.
This ford is about 2' deep in the middle of the bridge, with the line by the bridge being the shallowest line. As you can see, the current got the better of me and I was diverted into the deeper area of the river.
It's not as risky as it seems. The motorcycle I was using has had the snorkel removed, so is prone to spluttering/stalling at the slightest sniff of water. As with any 'wet airbox' incident, the bike would only run on choke until the water had drained/passed through the engine. A short distance up the road and the engine ran correctly again.
The ford is a public road but bollards prevent use by car or carriage. It looks like a nice place for a picnic/summer paddle.
My friend was a pansy for pushing his bike across the bridge!
