After a week or more of heavy rain, we knew the river was flooded, but until this afternoon I hadn’t ventured down the nearby and appropriately named ’Trent Lane’ to see it for myself. My walk soon came to a halt at the point where footpath became river. Clearly not a day to sit on the bench and admire the view, and for comparison I include a similar shot taken in the spring.
“No individual rain drop ever considers itself responsible for the flood.” John Ruskin
