Hi, There is a (usually covered) sign just in Mill Lane that the council uncovers when the ford through the River Tas is flooded. The ford is often impassable after heavy rain. There have been many vehicles stuck here, one was actually swept downriver. Or it may be that somebody was playing about with the sign.

I don't think there is a conditional restriction tag for highway closure only after heavy rain such that the road is flooded, but I may be wrong.

The driver should have been aware/warned of the reason for the highway being closed. Thus avoiding this note.
