That’s below the level where this path usually starts to flood.
This flood line starts from years of this gauge’s history — the level the river only tops a few days a year. Reports of a flooded or passable day will tune it to the path itself.
About this path
The flat gravel paths around the flooded gravel pits between the Trent and the Erewash — Church Path, the Causeway and the riverside River Path — heavily used by birdwatchers, walkers and cyclists. Paths and the village floodgates close repeatedly when the Trent rises, most recently in October 2023 and February 2026.
