-saturated ground from stormy weather.

-warm morning caused a massive storm to occur by mid day.

-within a few hours a massive 5 inches of rain had fallen.

-the v shapped valley increased run off speed and the river burst it's banks and crashed down on bosworth

-the force of the water was enough to pick up cars and the bridge in bosworth collapsed causing a dam

-sewage and draining systems were old

it was under very exceptional circumstances and bosworth was not used to anual flooding, therefore they didn't have any flood control

hope that helps =]

What were the physical causes of boscastle flood?

The main physical causes of the Boscastle flood in 2004 were intense rainfall over a short period of time, the saturated ground from previous rainfall, and the steep topography of the area that led to rapid runoff into the river. These factors combined to create a flash flood that overwhelmed the river and caused extensive damage to the village.
