Welney landlord fears business may not survive impact of increasingly lengthy spells of flooding on customer numbers
Dennis Birch estimates his pub loses about £3,000 a week when the road into the village of Welney is closed because of flooding – and this winter, it was closed for a record-breaking 89 days.
Now labelled “the most flooded road in Britain”, Birch said he questions whether the 18th-century Lamb and Flag can survive the impact the flooding has on the number of customers coming through his door.
