An entire town has been almost completely cut off by flood water

Shocking aerial photographs show how an entire town has been almost completely cut off by flood water as a result of heavy downpours which battered Britain. Parts of Tewkesbury, Glos, were left entirely submerged by 5ft (1.5m) of water after the River Severn burst its banks following torrential rain over the weekend. Ancient Tewkesbury Abbey can be seen nearly marooned in dramatic drone images taken today (Mon) in scenes strikingly reminiscent of the devastating floods of 2007. Other parts of the historic town were also left under several feet of water following the deluge of bad weather, which saw a month's worth of rain falling in just two days.
