The husband of a former High Sheriff of Derbyshire who died after being swept away following heavy rain has told a coroner he saw no road signs warning drivers of flooding.
Annie Hall, 69, died after getting out of her car, when the vehicle became stranded in floodwater in November 2019.
Mrs Hall and her husband, Michael, were trying to drive home to Ashford-in-the-Water, near Bakewell, in the Derbyshire Peak District, when they were forced to find an alternative way home after the main A6 road was cut by flooding.
An hour-and-a-half case management inquest hearing at Chesterfield Coroner’s Court on Monday was attended by Mrs Hall’s husband, her son, David Pickup, and Mr Hall’s son, Robert Hall.
