1683 Trent flood
- ... that in 1683 ice floes on the River Trent in England badly damaged the bridges at Nottingham and Newark?
- Source: "Even the generally placid and genial Trent has always had its unruly side. There was the flood of 1683, when the bridges at Nottingham and Newark were swept away by ice floes driven on by a roaring torrent of floodwater" from: Fort, Tom (2008). Downstream. Century. p. 68. ISBN 978-1-84605-169-2.

- New enough, long enough (still comfortably over 1500 characters having exhausted all sources), hook should be of interest to readers. Will assume good faith on the print source. QPQ done, believe this is good to go. --Bcschneider53 (talk) 02:04, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
