History

[[Flooding]] of August 16th, 2004

In the worst flooding in the area for fifty years, Tintagel andCamelford were inundated by torrential rain and parts of Bude were reported to be submerged in up to six feet of water as a normal month's rainfall fell in only two hours. Nearby Boscastle was devastated as up to three feet of water rushed through the coombe at up to 40 miles per hour and the Bude and Port Isaac lifeboats were called out to assist in the recue which involved seven helicopters.

The floods hit Boscastle almost exactly 52 years to the day after floods swept through Lynmouth, in Devon, killing 12 people.
