Thousands of people were forced from their homes as torrential rain hit the city and surrounding areas on June 25, 2007.
Two people died, including a 14-year-old boy who was swept to his death in a swollen river, while an estimated £1bn of damage was caused by one of the worst natural disasters ever to hit the area.
Here’s a look back at some of the pictures from the Great Floods of 2007.
