  • Documentary Records of Floods in the Vale of Pickering
    Documentary records of floods in the Vale of Pickering These records are taken from the British Hydrological Society Chronology of Hydrological Events. As they are documentary records, their content is partly a function of the recording of events coupled to the extent to which documents have been found. However, they show a notable phenomenon, often found in other flood records, of a flood rich period in the late-nineteenth century followed by a flood poor period in the early 20 th century. There then follows the textual descriptions that accompanies each flood. Figure 1. Dates of documented flood records before 1950. Note that these are documented which means that they are not equivalent to the continual record of a water level recorder and reflect time-varying trends in the extent to which documents were recorded. 1750 1770 1790 1810 1830 1850 1870 1890 1910 1930 1950 " A sudden inundation of the river Rye happened at Helmsley in Yorkshire, such as had never been known by the oldest people in those parts, probably occasioned by the late heavy rains.Two houses were entirely washed away , the one inhabited by James Holdforth, he and his whole family drowned, except his wife, who being sick in her bed, was carried down the stream half a mile, and at last washed off into a field, where she was found the next morning very little hurt. The other house belonged to John Sunley, was also drowned, and all his family. In the whole thirteen persons.(sic) Two other houses were greatly damaged, as was also the stone bridge at the entrance to the town; fourteen hay-stacks were driven down the river a mile, on one of which was a half year old calf, who kept its footing, and was taken off alive.
