L410 (51387, 59497 & 51345) passes Hinksey Yard on the evening of 6 May 1988 with the 2C64 17:10 Reading to Oxford Network SouthEast service. It is just crossing one of several streams that link the Hinksey Stream (a backwater of the River Thames) with the main course of the River Thames. This whole area is criss-crossed by numerous small streams, which explains why the locality is so prone to flooding. |
