An official report by the Environment Agency into flooding in Horncastle in October 2023 says that it would have occurred even if part of the town鈥檚 flood defences hadn't failed.

197 properties were flooded during Storm Babet, with two months of rain falling in 24 hours - something the EA called 'a once in 1,000 years event'.
