Read in the Herts thread that there was a really deep section somewhere along Violets Lane, roof level apparently. Proceed with caution!!!

There are some deep bits but not roof level I dont think, some would be close though in full flood, maybe half way up the screen on a lifted disco so deep still!!

Heres what it was like a few weeks ago, not very deep at all:

Yeah deffo low range, as soon as you hit the water it saps all the power, if you try it in high range you wont have the power to keep going, mind you its a stoney base so you can stop and start again, just means your gonna get wet!

Haha no one wants to get wet lol
