The Swale in flood at Thornton Bridge This appears to be a favourite spot for me to photograph the Swale in flood at Thornton Bridge. Compared with other photos, particularly one from 1st January 2013, the river level is even higher on this occasion than it was almost exactly 10 years previously.

Road closed due to flooding This is the road from Brafferton towards Cundall and Asenby near Thornton Bridge, where floodwater has backed up across the road. maybe the Victorians had more sense, as the original route followed slightly higher ground in a semi-circle to the left. That option has now been closed and is now on private land.
