Boscastle Floods: winched to safety 20 years ago
It has been twenty years since the Boscastle Floods.
A huge surge of water hit the North Cornwall village, destroying buildings and washing cars into the harbour. Around 100 people were airlifted to safety after the flash flood.
One of them was Margaret Templar who ran the Riverside Restaurant. Margaret has been telling Naomi Kennedy about her memories of the day.
