The Ching

Phosphate reagent did not dissolve completely possibly due to temperature

Scum and bubbles on the surface of the water along with fallen leaves

Small static pool of water downstream of Connaught Water below which the river is completely dried up.

Water sample taken from pool at the base of the lake overflow structure.

The Ching downstream of this site has almost dried up with just wet pebbles in some places with puddles of still water in between

Only a trickle of water entering the river from Connaught Water therefore the river is virtually static
