Our First Talk of 2026:
Flooding Events from 1953 to Present Date
During the night of Saturday 31st January 1953, a heavy storm surge in the North Sea caused the worst flooding event in Britain of the 20th Century.
It was soon after dusk when the first waves crashed through the sea defences in Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea,
and within an hour virtually the whole town including the high street lay underwater.
