Kempsey: Squire's Walk and water level gaugeboard
On the right is a water level gaugeboard, which shows the depth of water at the ford across Hatfield Brook, which itself is just around the corner to the left. Some indication of the depth of water that was expected at the ford in historic times can be gleaned from the fact that the base of the gaugeboard is at 7 feet. Philip's Image taken round the corner shows the "lower half" of the gaugeboard. Hopefully, with the completion in September 2012 of Kempsey's flood protection embankment, that keeps floodwater from the River Severn out of the village, and pumps that take excess water from the brook into the river, there will be no more need for such a gauge. However the pumps failed to operate as planned in a flood event in November 2012, and some properties in the village were flooded again.
