That video inspired me to look at the winterbourne in a different light, especially its relationship to Silbury Hill, now I go to Avebury to see that (this is weird) the Kennet is safe so to speak. Couple of weeks ago on a visit, with the flooding of the water meadows I heaved a sigh of relief that the natural world still goes on - no matter how much hot air we spout ;)

The Beckhampton brook hasn't flowed for 3 years now.
This is the main watersource for the Silbury moat now since the Winterbourne river was deepened to stop it overflowing into the meadows.
The water around Silbury is just rainwater and won't last very long.
