Update February Walk - Compton
The route for the walk from Compton on Saturday 22nd February was rechecked on Wednesday and will be OK to walk although of course very muddy.
The road from the A34 into Compton via East Ilsley is passable. There has been flooding in East Ilsley itself and still has lots of water on or very near the road but cars can get through.
In Compton the road that goes passed the school, church and under the old railway bridge has also been quite badly flooded but 4x4 cars have been getting through.
