The footpath beside the River Ock to Tesco is flooded. At the Tesco end the path is submerged, with water flowing across it.  This follows the heavy rainfall of the 15th and 17th January.

The fields near Tesco are also flooded, as water flows over the banks of the River Ock and Sandford Brook.

Higher water can also be seen in the flood basins near Tesco. They were cleared last year and made more visible. Despite this, there does not appear to be any threat to the Tesco car park.

It is also interesting to see from the footpath that the field between the River Ock and the site of the new Unicorn School, formerly Ock Mill and the Premier Inn, has been cleared of willows and other trees and bushes.
