Pregnant Julia Black had a remarkable journey from her home at Barcombe to a natural birth centre in Crowborough.
A tractor, a lifeboat and an ambulance were needed to take her over flooded fields and roads before she could safely give birth to a baby boy.
Julia, her partner Neil Griffin, and the baby are all none the worse for their adventures. But water way to come into the world!
