Pathe newsreel report on the effects of record-level rainfall in Norfolk

A car travels through flood water in the road. Chalk markings on a brick wall indicating flood levels highlight the unusual amount of rain that fell in August 1912. A collapsed bridge in Coltishall shows the extent of structural damage. The end of a cottage at Horstead is pictured, devasted by flood water and brought to a pile of rubble.
