Residents in Sussex are being warned to prepare for major flooding as rivers across the county are expected to burst their banks following the recent torrential rain.

The Environment Agency has given red flood warnings to those living in Alfriston, Hellingly, Barcombe Mills and Mock Bridge, informing people to ‘act now’ to avoid major consequences.

The EA say the Cuckmere River is high and rising, with half a month’s rain recorded at Cowbeech in the last 36 hours.
