Church Stretton Councillor John Luck came to the rescue of a Hereford duo who had become stranded in Church Stretton during flooding on Wednesday.

The pair, a 36-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man, had been in Crewe on a work trip and were due to return to Hereford on the train.

As trains around the county were cancelled due to the downpours, their workplace had arranged for a taxi to take them on the two-and-a-half-hour journey.
