my dad was on about the great flood and the tricket family grave he had read about, we actually went to high Bradfield church and had a look, while we were out walking. unfortunatly, he couldnt find it.

 

A Sheffield Flood website has a map of Bradfield churchyard showing the location of the Trickett grave - go to http://www.mick-armitage.staff.shef.ac.uk/sheffield/maps.html and scroll down.

Hi again ....there is an excellent website regarding the great flood ... As regards a film, I think the logistics would make it impossible, but I do think perhaps a documentary ought to be made...

 

A documentary "The Forgotten Flood" was made at the time of the 140th anniversary commemoration in 2004 and released a year later. I have a two-minute slot in it, talking to camera about my ancestor Henry Whittles who saved his family at Hillsborough when most of the house collapsed. You can see the introduction to the film on http://www.theforgottenflood.com/ and the DVD can be purchased on-line. Well worth it!
