Описание к видео A flash flood hits Castleton | Storm Babet hits the High Peak causing floods and disruption

Storm Babet hit the high peak in Castleton yesterday causing Peakshole water to burst its banks and flood the area. it is the highest water level seen in 40 years. It became a raging torrent flooding the village in several areas including Mill Bridge, Spital Bridge and the main road near the visitor centre.
Locals were having to sandbag their properties and use pumps to try and get rid of the water.
I went for a wander to capture this extreme weather and here is my film as I went to various locations around the village including the Devils Arse the source of Peakshole water.
A lot of the Peak District has been effected by this extreme rainfall.
Thoughts are with those affected and I hope they haven't suffered too much.
