Very large areas are under water, the river having broken its banks at many places. A great deal of damage has been done and heavy losses have been suffered. Many farm houses are still isolated. It is the same story in the Severn Valley, particularly between Welshpool and Shrewsbury. Footage of Shrewsbury shows three flooded routes into the town and the cutting of one main road involves a detour of many miles. Damage has been widespread and severe. There is also an aerial shot of the railway station at Stafford, which was almost entirely cut-off by the flooding of the tributaries of the Trent River.Language:Mute with English intertitlesOriginal number:57-325Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
