A makeshift signal is attached to this new flood protection wall in the area of the bridge. There is a high water mark on the wall. In 2013 the water was roughly level with the upper joint. The wall is an angular retaining wall with reinforced concrete. That holds back a flood of the century like 2013. Access to the level is not permitted.
