Flood-hit Rotherham suburb under water again
Catcliffe, which was hit by devastating floods in 2007 which left scores of residents homeless, was affected by floodwater again last night.
Catcliffe Flash did breach the nearby road – between Catcliffe and Treeton – and it was blocked off by the police for a time, but is now passable with care.
