Appleby flood victims mop-up after third deluge in a month

People in Appleby in Cumbria are mopping-up again after facing their third flood in a month.

The River Eden came over its banks again last night, with the town having barely recovered from the devastating floods left by Storm Desmond.

The latest floods were much less severe, but further storm weather is already predicted in the run-up to Christmas.

Appleby residents like Roy Ashley from Appleby Garage, and Clifford Curley from The Westmorland Building Centre, say people in the town desperately need some respite.
