Flood!

February 2019 was when severe flooding occurred following storms and snow. Most of these photos were taken at the Black Brook near the Morrisons supermarket and at Queen's Park.

Flooding on the Blackbrook near the Morrisons supermarket.
The Blackbrook was much, much higher than it usually is.

Flooding at Morrisons supermarket car park.


Shopping trolleys moored in the water at the Morrisons supermarket.






























The ducks briefly got a new pond after Queen's Park was flooded. And they seemed to enjoy it! 'Cause they all moved to the new pond. The mandarin duck in this picture, legend has it, moved to Charnwood Water after this new pond dried up.

Finally, for a moment of reflection, here's the Carillon Tower reflected in standing water in the park.
