Tanglewood is flooded!

For those of you who have read The Tanglewood Tea Shop, you'll know that the river bursts its banks in the story. After all the rain we had over the last couple of weeks, and that horrendous storm on Friday (25th October), I went to have a look at the state of the river.

This is the view from one of the bridges over the River Usk. As far as I know, this particular one wasn't forced to close, but others downriver were. Thankfully, the water subsided again fairly quickly.
