River Pang beyond the A34
The Pang stream is flowing from Hodcott in the dip in the distance to the right. It can first be glimpsed as it crosses the West Ilsley Road, then cuts across the base of Windmill Hill towards the A34 and East Ilsley.
Upper Pang - springs & sources :: SU4981

Following a winter of heavy rainfall, the chalk aquifer which feeds the River Pang has again become saturated, causing the groundwater to rise in many springs and pools for the second year in succession. In 2014 the westernmost sources of the Pang are rising beyond West Ilsley, and the usually dry upper sections of the Pang have flooded roads and houses in all the villages along its course.
