Water Water Everywhere

Despite all the work being carried out currently by the Environment Agency to reduce the risk of flooding from the river Tame, our Woodland Trail is impassable due to flooding by Langley Brook. I inspected the trail yesterday morning and found that the brook had 'backed up' from the canal culvert and water had completely overflowed in to the woodland. Parts of the path were knee deep in water and that's without venturing on to the canal meadow just before the canal bridge. With more rain last night (Thursday 2nd Jan) and further rain forecast for today and the weekend, I suggest you wear you're tallest wellies if you're considering a visit
