Description |
This short documentary film begins up in the hills with the aftermath of a flood on a village and the cleaning up work that is undertaken by the villagers, clearing debris from the river and shoring up damaged homes. The river level is now lower and the full extent of the flood damage can be seen on the entire length of the river from the hills into the town of Burnley. The fire and the auxiliary fire brigade is called on to help with the clean up and can be seen pumping flood water out of homes and businesses. |
