Pub landlady spends thousands on flood defences

Khara Schrijvers said her pub, in Brandon, had suffered 12 floods in four months.

John Slinger said the flood was devastating, almost exactly a year after Wolston was previously hit.

The flooding comes almost a year to the day after the village was hit by Storm Frank in January 2024.

Wolston residents had little warning of 2024 events as the village had not been flooded for 20 years.
