The Annan burst its banks after prolonged heavy rain and gale force winds. The footpath on the right bank disappeared underwater, and can just be seen reappearing to the right of the tree in the water in the middle distance, only to disappear again. The track on top of the levée, however, remained clear of the water. Cf. Image
