The Crumwheel is on the sharpish corner near the Ilkley Bathing pool, the footbridge actually crosses it I do believe.

Is it "Crumwheel" or "Cromwheel"?

Crum/Crom depends which books you look in.
Prior to Ilkley UDC dumping a few hundred tons of shingle up river from the basin there used to be an ice wheel forming of a winter. I'll find some pics of it for the gallery.
