Thanks Phillip for your interesting insights into the '55 flood in Maitland. My mother-in-law, (family surname MOORE) grew up in High Street, Maitland and I have heard many tales of the damage done to her family home and how they cleaned it up afterwards. The video scenes really show the strength of what happened.
