A six-figure sum has been spent by Dumfries and Galloway Council dealing with the damage of bad weather which hit the region late last year.
The severe flooding at the end of November, followed by the high winds of November’s Storm Arwen and Storm Barra in December, caused extensive damage throughout the region.
Business owners were left counting the cost of the damage and both the Diamond Jubilee and Cuthbertson Memorial bridges were washed away on the River Annan as water levels hit a record high in October.
