1938 Flood Cockermouth Film
Cockermouth, at the confluence of the rivers Cocker and Derwent, was heavily flooded in 1938. This cine film was taken in 1938 by my Grandfather Frank Haigh. After the flood section of the film ends keep watching because the film then shows that later in 1938 heavy snowfall cut off access to Cockermouth for a few days.

In 1938, Cockermouth built on the confluence of two rivers, The river Cocker and the river Derwent was heavily flooded. Cockermouth is a small town in North West Cumbria UK. This was a cine film taken in 1938 by my Grandfather Frank Haigh. I have since had the cine converted to digital. Later in 1938 the snowfall cut off access to the town for a few days.
