As promised (though a little later than intended.. sorry!) a selection of useful and interesting Boscastle resources. I deliberately haven't included anything from the news websites - not because there's nothing there, or they're not useful, just that there are too many... But do have a look at the BBC, Guardian, Telegraph, Times, etc.
Excellent report from the Environment Agency about the Boscastle Flood.
A leaflet about the flood produced by North Cornwall District Council.
Information from the Met Office about the weather conditions leading up to the flood.
Video clip from the construction company responsible for the flood defence scheme in Boscastle.
Details of the Valency defence scheme from NCDC.
Costing the Earth - programme from Radio 4 from December 2004, looking at the flood, the aftermath, and "the lessons we might learn" from the flood.
And finally, the Witchcraft Museum in Boscastle (those of you who were in my GCSE group already know about this one - and the witch balls in the window!) has an online diary of the floods, the damage to the museum, and the cleanup operation.
Where would you be without Geography?
