I wouldn't live at the bottom of Boscastle, severe flooding there is
much more frequent than the EA seem to think. The report following the
last flood seemd to combine both 1950's events into 1 - possibly
because one missed all the official rain gauges.

We visited Boscastle last year. We'd seen the media reports but it's not
until you see the actual site that it's possible to get some
understanding of what it must have been like - even so it's still
difficult.
