A FLOOD warning for the River Aire has been issued at Shipley as Storm Christoph continues to have an impact in the district. The Environment Agency put the flood warning in place for Shipley including east of Hurst Mill extending through Roberts Park at Saltaire towards Baildon Bridge.

The shallow part of the river near Buck Mill provided a natural site for a ford. At some time a cobbled surface was constructed under the water, and the remains of this ford can still be seen along the bank when the water is low. Later a series of stepping stones, or hippins as they were called locally, were constructed, allowing people to cross without getting wet, but over time they became unstable. There were frequen
