calne -wet weather

After todays massive down pour flooding occured in a couple of places and the rivers were extreamly high.
The photos are not great as the light was fading fast but i hoped there good enough for you to see what its like.
There was a bit of flooding on abbered way just by the penhill road turning.






Then i went down town to the river by the riverside shops.

this is a good comparison
although taken at different angles you can clearly see just how much the river has rose by looking at the bench

I remember walking home from school and walking on the old black pipe at doctors pond, also firing bangers from the hand rail pipes. Haven't been back there for over 36 years must visit.

Yes, Chippenham is really dire, never seen it so bad with so much flooding - continues like that down river in Bath too.
