The same area of the village was flooded for weeks earlier this year and the groundwater infiltration into the sewers in both Chalfont St Peter and Chesham, featured on BBC Countryfile. Angry local residents and business owners attended a meeting arranged by Buckinghamshire Council and Thames Water earlier this year but as yet no solution to the groundwater flooding has been implemented. Some businesses still have sandbags outside their premises today. Thames Water are expected to run out of cash by December. Credit: Maureen McLean/Alamy Live News
