The image taken on the 20th July 2007
at Lyneham Village Green - adjacent to the roundabout
sign post. The normally pasture green was overcome
by the excess water
flooding
from the Swan River behind
the bus stop. Lyneham did not experience as much flooding
as the neighbouring villages down the B4069. Christian
Malford was particularly bad as the River Avon burst
its banks and the road had to be closed for at least
48 hours. while river levels dropped. To read about

Do you know any other village bygones, facts or hold
images of the past, what the building was used for,
who visited it, or do you you have a tale to tell with
the life in Lyneham. If so please let us know so we
can fill in the missing bygones of the village and share
it with everyone else. Please contact the webmaster here.
