Koromyslovo stands on the banks of the Sukhona River, at the confluence with the Yug River. In high water, it happens that Koromyslovo is cut off by large water from the land and the village turns into an island. While the rest of the villages are almost never cut off by water.
But before the change in the course of the Sukhona at the end of the 19th century, Koromyslovo was on the side of Veliky Ustyug, that is, on the other side.
And in high water, a lot of water passes just in the place of the old channel.
In the village, as often happens, there is an old part and a Soviet one.
The old part consists of private old huts, which face the facades just in the direction of the former riverbed.
The Soviet part is already located in accordance with the new active channel of the Sukhna.
A little further, at the very confluence of the rivers, there is the village of Koromyslovskaya Zapan (Backwater), which is now abandoned.
At night, in pitch darkness, I did not dare to go there.
After a severe flood in 2016, the shore of the Sukhona was washed away and one of the houses turned out to be hanging half above the water.
In general, I liked the old part of the village, where the locals watch the narrow cozy street.
The Soviet devastation is not felt here, but the comfort of an ordinary floodplain village reigns.
I will continue to follow Koromyslovo closely.
I will observe both the state of the coastline at the confluence of the rivers, and the houses that are receding into the past.
Most importantly, I really want to see how this village looked before the river changed its course.
It seems that this is impossible, but in part ..
If the Sukhona River does not suddenly decide to change its place for the flow again.
