The route around the perimeter of Richmond Park has flooded.

The Tamsin Trail is a 7.35-mile trail path around the full edge of the park.

It is popular with walkers, cyclists and runners and visitors can join it at multiple entrances including Richmond Gate.

Parts of it are currently out of bounds, however, after heavy flooding.

The bridge near Kingston Gate which takes visitors up the path adjacent to Dark Hill is nearly full submerged, as you can see in the above photo.

Park employees are trying to mitigate the flooding and the Royal Parks said "gains are being made".

"Working to relieve flooding on the Tamsin Trail between Ham and Kingston in Richmond Park," the charity posted.

"It's ongoing work and the team are contending with some bitter weather but the gains are being made."
