[FR] Il traverse la Creuse entre le moulin Saint-Etienne en rive droite et l'emplacement de l'ancien moulin de Naillac sur la rive gauche. Il a été dédoublé par un gué en aval, dont des traces étaient également visibles lors des travaux de curage. Sa date de construction reste inconnue, mais une origine antique est presque certaine. Il fut emporté par une crue en 1530.
