Ruth Blanchard shared this picture with us showing the floods in Trusthorpe. Her Grandparents lived in one of the houses shown in the picture. They were rescued from their house by boat.

After the 1953 floods, in Alford a tea was given for the Duchess of Gloucester at the congregation chapel on Chantry Road in Alford.   In the photo is Councillor Coles, Mr Stephenson and Mr Thompson.   Sylvia Cussons gave us this photograph as her mother is in the shot with some other local ladies.
