Mid Thames Floods, Summer 2007

Goring weir and lock

The normal water level drop at Goring is just under 6 feet

The approach lay-by moorings are under water.

Boats are in the lock chamber for safety.

Consuta on the pontoon

Our pontoon is held at the normal lake waters edge but is now accessed by a bit of wading.
