The stream is starting to turn into a pool. In the summer of last year the stream disappeared.
Bottom of stream was quite sandy.
Some dead leaves at the bottom of the stream, near the banks. The water level was above average.
The water level was about a third to a half way up the pipe. Upstream, now the vegetation has died away, I could see that this stream is fed by two other streams.
This stream has returned to the level (depth & flow), after the recent rainfall, seen in the spring
The stream has been dry for a while but a pond has now been created, probably as consequence of recent rainfall that has been heavy at times.
Not tested. Stream still dry. A local person (the same person we encountered at the corner of Withies Lane/Polsted Lane) said this stream historically often dries out in the summer.
The stream at this location is now dry so no testing was conducted
This stream now consists of a small pond. If there is no rain over the next month it will be completely dry.
Last month the water was moving but not this month.
