    It would have been helpful to state _'how many'_ years and exactly where _'Dumfries and Galloway'_ is. I 'Googled' it and found the answer ("30 years" & "Scotland"), but it would have been helpful to add it to the description.

    Should never have built on that low lying part of land next to the river. Would be interesting to see it before being developed, probably marshy ground hence the wall that was build along the river but the ground has not been raised high enough. Look at the streets they all run down steeply to the river.

    Feel for the people. Would not be surprised if its negligence with repair and care with waters running off these rivers. The most need thier silt cleaned out. So they can cope with the volume of water on the main rivers. But nothing will be done till it gets out of hand as per usual.
