A photographer who moved to a remote community to record how villagers coped with severe flooding is to exhibit his work in the area.

Arthur Foster lived in Skinningrove, near Saltburn, for a month at the height of the floods two years ago.

Now his work is to go on show at the Margrove Heritage Centre, near Boosbeck.

Mr Foster, who completed the project as part of a postgraduate degree at Sunderland University, said: "I'm very interested in the way we as human beings radically change our environment for our own ends, as has been happening in Skinningrove.

"I also thought the power of nature and how it affects us was very interesting."

Mr Foster will hold a workshop for aspiring photographers at the centre on Tuesday, May 27, from 11am and 2pm.

His work can be viewed from this weekend.

The exhibition will be officially opened on Monday, May 12 and runs until the beginning of June.
