Flooded pub
The Dog and Duck Pub is close to the Emm Brook and yesterday saw its gardens flooded. The pub itself is unaffected and is open as normal.
Chris Athroll told The Wokingham Paper: “The garden was completely flooded yesterday. It’s receded somewhat overnight but there’s still a pond in my garden.
“The pub itself is fine.”
