Notes

After the rain (first in at least a week), the water was very silty, orangy brown and this made it hard to test Nitrates and Phosphates. There did not appear to be any change in colour from the original water taken from the stream, hence the 0. However, very hard to actually make a judgement. See images.
Upstream of this point there are parts of the stream that carry a lot of iron oxide material. After rain it seems that this may be washed downstream.
Similarly the Alkalinity and Hardness were odd colours, almost to zero.
