The surge of water flooded over the road. Geoff Robinson used his digger to make a barrier to try and prevent the water from flooding Overman’s Cottages. Then he rescued people in the village from their bedroom windows, in the digger’s bucket. This is the last photograph taken before the water surged, literally in minutes through Skinningrove, leaving devastation in the wake.
