The flooding at Ringwood & Sopley Common

Today, 9th of Feb 14, visited two locations to view the flooding caused by the storms and heavy rain. First up, a place known to fishermen as the Severals just outside of Ringwood, walking up the old railway line which crosses the River Avon.

The flood water is very close to some properties around here.

The second location was Sopley Common, which is typically just heath and sand.
