Photographs of
the floods that affected large areas of the Britain during early
November 2000, which the Environment Agency said, were on the same
scale as the Great Floods of 1947. The heavy rain also resulted in
the wettest autumn since records began.
Areas affected included the historic walled city of York, where the river reached
a peak of 17ft 8ins (5.3m) above normal at 0330 GMT on Saturday 4th November
2000, within two inches of breaching flood defences.
