Sunday, 25th November. Photos of Cod Beck River in Thirsk.
Here we go again! More rain falling on the UK than is neccesary - what a year! This was supposed be a drought year! Things rapidly changed. Wettest for 100 years! It looks quite dramatic but no properties have been affected in Thirsk. St. James House B and B is situated well above any potential flood risk. Cod Beck has regularly gone over the top of its banks on numerous occasions each year.
Have booked a good summer for Thirsk and North Yorkshire for 2013.

Looking across Cod Beck from the Millgate car Park to the cottages on the west side of St. James Green.
The picnic area beside Cod Beck. Think we will pass on that today.
The footpath beside Cod Beck from St. Mary's Church in Kirkgate to St. James Green. No one attempting to negotiate it today - under about 3 feet of water.
View of cottages on St. James Green looking across the flooded Cod Beck River from The Holmes - Norby, Thirsk.
