We’ve eventually managed to source some very good photos that speak volumes on how bad the August 13th flood event was at Freuchie Mill in Freuchie, Fife.

Flood waters at their maximum, resulting in many written off cars

Of course the iconic shed had to feature in there. Alas it is no longer with us materially, but it will be with all the flood survivors spiritually for a long time to come.

If you look closely, you may just be able to see the very top of the roof of the only car to have been drowned, but that has been subsequently resurrected: the old style Mini Cooper.

Thanks go to George and Margaret Brown and Angela from the Freuchie Mill flats for the photos.
