During the Boscastle flash floods in August 2004, water levels reached as high as 10 feet (approximately 3 meters) in some areas. The intense rainfall caused the River Valency and River Jordan to overflow, leading to significant flooding in the village. The flash floods resulted in extensive damage to properties and infrastructure, but fortunately, there were no fatalities.
