IT is just over 10 years since the summer of 2007 when thousands of people were affected by downpours which saw two months' rainfall in just one day.

It was the wettest May to June period ever recorded and many people will have their own memories of how floods caused havoc across the county.

The village of Hampton Bishop was virtually cut off from the rest of the county by the rising floodwater and efforts to evacuate residents from their homes saw the use of helicopters and countless emergency service crews working all weekend.

The popular Bunch of Carrots pub was forced to close its bar area for just over three weeks and the carvery and kitchen equipment was damaged by the floods.

In Eardisley, the floods temporarily shut Karasel Equine Supplies when more than six inches of water flooded the shop in less than 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, residents living on the bottom edge of Linton Caravan Park, near Bromyard, became surrounded by the floods, with fire service rescue missions needed to evacuate stranded residents.

Schools were also affected during the downpour, with Bosbury Primary School one of Herefordshire's worst affected. Floodwater ripped through the building, with every room left underwater.
