Villagers try to push a stranded car through flood water on the outskirts of Chichester. Heaving on the front bonnet, the people try to rescue the vehicle from rising waters on the outskirts of town. The car has been overcome in a metre of flood water and unable to start on its own. Lavant is a village just north of the city of Chichester. It is made up of two parts, Mid Lavant and East Lavant, and takes its name from the River Lavant which flows from East Dean. This area has been prone to flooding for several years and houses around the rising rivers can be blighted with insurance companies refusing future cover.
