The photo was taken from my mother's house, about 50m from King Johns Bridge (A38 across river Avon), and shows the flooded meadows between King Johns Bridge and the waterworks, with the waterworks hiding the Mythe Bridge (A438 across river Severn), behind the waterworks in this photo. As you say, and as the map shows, the waterworks plot is adjacent to the Mythe bridge, a bridge I have crossed countless times. Everything looks OK from here.
The photo is to show typical annual flooding for this part of Gloucestershire, January & February often sees these meadows flooded, with a river rise of 2-3m, Tewkesbury made the news July 07 with a July 7m flood, an unprecedented summer flood. The map shows river levels for about 10 months of the year. The foreground bushes in this picture show the North West boundary of the lower Avon, joining King John's weir pool to the river Severn; the partially submerged fence is the boundary between the two field with different colours on Google Earth map. These fields are only flooded by a few centimetres, but enough to completely cover.
Picture taken by my nephew, not far from you, Charles, lodging with Jean. The only problem was moving the furniture etc, just in case. Lots of excitement with the media presence on King Johns Bridge though?
This is the photo of Skelmersdale, May 2005. Kestrel Mews in the foreground, Dalton Park middle ground right, both in Ashurst, then off toward industrial park.

Normally get a boat comfortably under these arches! Not the heavy flood July 2007, normal annual flood.
