Folly Bridge Pool, Sandbourne culvert unblocking RBFG
Following a lengthy bramble thwacking session to actually locate the much rumoured culvert and dropped chamber, we located it and cleared. The results speak for themselves, with the actual pool level dropping some two foot to its intended level. The culvert pipe runs full for the first time in any ones memory and the water clears of the horrid green choking weed that covered its surface. Not many places that a short walk across the bypass and you are looking at elephants in this country ! We could hear them for two days, the noise made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.

Wild Bill Hook, clearing route Folly Pool culvert 9.10.08
Evil brambles, branches, trees and nettles sent from the devil himself all knotted together to a height in excess of 12 foot in places. Riddings Brook Flood Group enrols the services of Wild Bill Hook to thwack a path to get to the culvert screen, that drops 5-6 foot into a chamber. The chamber leads off to a large culvert pipe that runs to the footpath, down under the viaduct and opens back into a lovely strect of Riddings Brook. Once it was found, it was realised the water level was some 2 foot higher than it should of been as the screen was blocked completely, it was very difficult to even locate. Once clear the results were spectacular !
