Town remembers devastating floods 25 years on

"It was a very quiet day, the sun was shining," says Miles Jenner, head brewer at Harvey's Brewery, reflecting on the 25th anniversary of the Lewes floods.

"The thing that alerted us to the fact something was going to happen were the birds going absolutely frantic in the trees - and we thought oh dear."

The East Sussex town saw around a month's worth of rainfall in the days leading up to the flood on 12 October, 2000.

More than 600 homes and 300 businesses were inundated with water from the River Ouse and more than 180 people were forced to sleep in emergency accommodation.
