2008 floods

13 December 2008 - Bradford Abbas

This morning the road to Yeovil via Stoford was not passable due to flood water. These pictures were taken mid afternoon when I returned on my bike.

The view across Smith’s bridge. This Land Rover had decided to turn round!

A wise move. The marker showed the water depth to be 2 feet.

Back at the bridge. The water is nearly at the top of the arches.

From the bridge you can normally just see a narrow river.
