The Stream at the Bottom of my Garden
looking downstream looking upstream I don't think I've posted any photos of the stream before, but as I didn't have any suitable images to use in this post, we dodged the rain showers and I took a couple of photos this morning. We, being Niall and me ... I'm having difficulty walking today so couldn't have done it without his help! The stream is running much higher than usual, thanks to all the rain we've had. I'm not worried about flooding though. The bank on the other side is lower than the one my side, so if the stream does break its bank it will hopefully start to flood into the field rather than on my side. And, should it eventually flood on my side it's highly unlikely that the garden will be affected. In the photo above, on the right hand side, you can see the new wood that's the fence at the bottom of my garden. The horizontal piece of wood shows the level of my garden, so that's how high the flood water would need to get before I started...
