Awful scenes in Crickhowell. Along with much of South Wales it's taken a battering from Dennis. I expect the Bridgend Pub must be under feet of water again. It got very badly flooded in the autumn I seem to remember.

It's the duty of all Green Man goers to spend even more money in this lovely village come August.

Thanks Smithers,just got home,a scary drive i wouldn't want to do again--had to drive along the pavement through one village,cars dumped on roads everywhere,huge pot holes and large debris littering roads--our house and town is ok but the surroundings are all flooded.Suppose to go to Hereford Hospital on Wednesday but that is looking doubtful at the moment.

Terrible for those affected, yet again. There's some drone footage on various sites showing the extent of the flooding at Crickhowell

Awful and Llangattock over the bridge has problems as well,Ludlow and Tenbury Wells have big issues---going to take a long time to fully recover.

Big section on bbc Wales news on Crickhowell,Landlord says he might not be able to reopen the Bridge End Inn and the water was 20 feet high on Bridge Street[the steep narrow street next toe the Bridge].

Green Man have just issued an email thanking everyone who supported their flood appeal, over £18,000 raised.

with everything else going on, it now seems so long ago that we had the floods.  But if you were one of those affected, flooded three times in less than six months and now all this...
