Out of Banks
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 15 May 2009
A spot of localised flooding on the River Glyme. The structure is an Environment Agency flow gauging station, where the flow is automatically recorded and my colleagues are taking measurements to ensure the calibration of the gauge is correct in such high flows. This photo is dated 15th May, but I suspect that's a download date, Guessing March /early April.
