Heavy rain brought flooding to many areas during the late winter of 1999, particularly here at Creeton lying in the valley of the West Glen River which burst its banks and thousands of gallons of water rushed into the road and surrounding meadows, turning the countryside into muddy lakes and cutting off houses on either side of the B1176 at the very foot of the hillside.
