Flood defences at the village of Burrowbridge in Somerset on 8th February 2014. Due to high rainfall, the River Parrett has been unable to cope with the volume of water and has flooded nearby farmland leaving houses underwater. The Environment Agency have drafted extra pumps to help Saltmoor Pumping Station cope with the huge volume of water but a severe flood alert remains and some occupants have been told to evacuate. © Nick Cable/Alamy Live News Credit: Nick Cable/Alamy Live News
