Foss Barrier The River Foss Barrier as viewed from Castle Mills Bridge. The barrier was built in 1989 as part of a flood alleviation scheme following the 1982 floods. It is located at St Georges Field in York where the River Foss meets the River Ouse. The 16 tonne gate can be lowered into the River Foss to stop the Foss levels from rising flood waters on the River Ouse.
