Anyone any better detail?

Sooooo glad we didn't buy that house :shocked:

Aaaah, that's really bad news, it's a nice little area. Feel v sorry for all the people involved, must be devastating to wake up and find your house and all your posessions are ruined.

Flooding has been a regular thing in Stoney Middleton, but I think this one is exceptional and if it is the lagoon then that is a lot of water to come down (and a lot of mud).

Glad i dont work there anymore!!!

I'm sure i recognise that taxi.....

Just tried to drive through there and the road is closed by the police. Saw Central TV and Hallam FM outside broadcast units there, looks like a major incident.

The policeman told us tht a sludge dam had burst it's banks and flooded the whole place with mud.

They could have done with a bit of flooding that time the Landlord burned the Royal Oak down for the insurance money!!!
