Much debris, stones, trees, branches and general rubbish was swept down the River Don during the floods in June 2007. Wherever there were obstacles, Bridges, Weirs, Trees, etc., the debris was caught up and remained when the waters subsided. This pictures shows some of the debris caught up on the middle river island near to Oughtibridge bridge. This whole area has, in March 2008, been cleaned up by removing most of the Trees from the middle of the river course ... see other pictures showing this view.
