It rings a bell, my mate in France lived over that way before she emigrated.

Re: swinefleet
 

Yeah closer to Goole

I think it flooded it the last bad ones in Yorkshire

Re: swinefleet
 

yeah near goole, but the council have said they have spent millions on flood defence would like to know a bit more so if anyone has any info that would be great

Re: swinefleet
 

Don't flood risk areas have to be identified publicly? The info should be available somewhere....failing that , buy on a hill :)

Re: swinefleet
 

Which council thinks it can hold back the sea by flood defences?
Surely not the Canute County Council.
