In Studley Wood runs the early reaches of Latchmoor Brook, only just starting its journey, narrow, running through a deep cut gully, the deluges of recent months have had a noticeable effect, even on this small woodland stream. Erosion, slippages, trees slumped into and over the young watercourse are more common now; foot bridges have been destroyed, trees slighted. Blockages and the inevitable influx of woodland detritus, will no doubt lead to the build up of dams, increased flooding and more change for this little brook and the stream it becomes.
