The highways team said on their post about Beale’s Corner: “We're grateful to our friends at Wyre Forest District Council for their help with the clean up this morning.”
Bewdley Flood Group posted on its Facebook page: "River's down, sun is up, bridge is open, road is immaculately cleaned. People are industriously cleaning, cellars are still pumping, birds are cheeping and a very hungry swan has returned to Beale's Corner."
The post added that the Environment Agency has been on site working to "clean-up raw sewage from along the villas by the boating club".
