Flooding on Rowlands Road
Flooding on Rowlands Road
Persistent heavy rain over the last three days has resulted in a large quantity of water running down the hill; too much for the drains to cope with, effectively creating a fast flowing "steam" covering the surface of the road (approx 1cm deep in places). On reaching the corner with Queen's Place, the "stream" rapidly changes direction causing an interesting "water spout" effect, several centimetres high, where it crashes against the wall.
