A Nottingham baker has spoken of his luck after his business escaped being seriously damaged by flooding. Heavy rainfall in Nottingham on Tuesday, July 11, left part of Sneinton Market temporarily submerged, with footage showing water cascading off the units and forming a stream that covered the pavement.
Shortly after Bryan Henesey, owner of Breadmill Bakery in the market, filmed the scene, he had the frightening realisation that the water had started to get into his new recently-opened artisan bakery. But even after hours of removing water and cleaning, Mr Henesey said he had been fortunate.
"As far as I know I have got quite lucky, it is not too bad. It was mostly just having to suck up an inch or two of water, mop up and make sure all my electrics were okay.
