Photographs were taken by DS, Oscar and Gillian Winsey, Michael Wright, Rene Green, Harry Grenville and others unknown.
DS originally gathered some 150 photographs of the Frome in flood for an Environmental Agency project and they have proved useful when newcomers declare 'I've not seen the river as high as this before!'
The road no longer floods near the village hall as WDDC and the NFU, who we collectively blamed for the problem, (A37 improvements and pig farming) were persuaded to put in drainage under the road.. If you look from the village hall car park you can see just how big a drain was required
The bicycle against the railings has no lights but does have a white painted mudguard. The boy is sitting on one of the horizontal gate pillars so possibly the American troops were in Frampton Park. The photo is a copy of a scan hence poor resolution
