Not far from Dickens Heath, here

Quite funny that Google streetview won't let you through it. The camera van obviously got to it and turned back.

Will have to take a look, i thought id seen that before, couldnt place it.
I used to play sunday football close to there i think.

what bikes do you use?
and do you find them too heavy for the green laning you do or are they the right power and weight to be used easily and comfortably?

How often does the road get closed like that? Is it only for a few days at a time when it floods, or do the council forget about the barricade and leave it there for weeks?

I have never seen it closed like that, i have seen it deep tho and turned the car around.

When she wrote it off, is was deeper and normal as i went down to get the AA to town car back. The dickens heath side was marked with flood signs. As she sat in the water with he baby the council came to take the fllood sign away. If she had taken it slower she would of been ok.
