I bet there are many people in Chesterfield who did not even know we had 2 'rivers' flowing through it.  Yesterday they made their mark and the pictures tell it all.  Not as bad as Sheffield but still a disaster for those affected.

 
Traffic going nowhere.

Queens Park's new tearooms.

Going home - somehow! 

 Boating weather

Saleing buy!

Recording history

Pets at home - I hope not.

 Waiting for the tide to turn! -A long wait as no other way through the floods.

 THe river Rother near Chesterfield station

       

Houses flooded near the station

The river is supposed to flow under the bridge not over it.

A deserted bypass with 2 cars facing the wrong way!

One of the dryest places in Chesterfield
