Back in August 2004 when floods ripped through the Cornish coastal village of Boscastle it was much to the nation’s relief that no lives were lost.
Yet the cost to the village’s residents was great, as houses, businesses and cars were washed away. Among the casualties that seemed to have been destroyed was Boscastle’s famous Museum of Witchcraft.
However, despite severe damage and following a massive clean up operation, staff at the world’s largest collection of witchcraft-related artefacts plan to reopen the doors to the public on Friday March 25, 2005.
