This is a "reverse" view of the Eastergate Bridge location (the bridge is behind the camera a little way), you didn't usually see the bridge and this part of the stream in the same shot or episode. In the series 23 episode “A Brief Excursion in the Fast Lane” Barry rides Wesley's motorised scooter along the path on the right and falls in the water, then Glenda turns up on a motorbike in full bike leathers, boots, and helmet.I don't really recall this particular location being used, but I can just see Compo swinging on the gate and splashing across the ford, liking the effect so much that he went back and forth a number of times, while Foggy and Clegg cautiously pick their way across.
Also the spot where Seymour sat freezing, demonstrating Zen to the lads
