Road in Devon village 'washes away' in Storm Chandra floods // Villagers have been left trapped after their main road was washed away in a flood. Residents of Newton St Cyres in Devon have dealt with massive disruptions to daily life since parts of Station Road crumbled following flooding from Storm Chandra. Floodwater covered the road on Tuesday (27/1), and is believed to have swept away the underlying soil, causing severe damage. The local school, as well as various businesses in the area, have been forced to close - as the only ways in and out of the village are through unreliable back roads, which have also flooded, and via trains which have been cancelled due to the weather.
