That be Thornford ford then - I've only ever been through it twice both of which were in Landies. I did once as a lad in the eighties rescue a couple in a Morris traveler that had ventured in & flooded, Me & a mate waded in & pulled the car back out. The driver gave us a fiver each for helping him which back in those days was a quite considerable sum.
