January 1901 - The Great Flood

THE GREAT FLOOD

It is worthy of a place in our records that the worst flood known for many years, some say 30 years, occurred on the last day of the century. The houses at the mill and some in Wickhamford were entirely surrounded by water, and a very great inconvenience was caused to the inhabitants in consequence. In some cases the houses were entirely inundated on the ground floor.
