SOMERSET FLOODING
Villages on the Somerset Levels have faced weeks of flooding with no respite from the conditions in sight. Muchelney has been cut off because of flooded roads for almost a month. As a result, an hourly boat is the only means by which residents can get out of the village to do day-to-day tasks like going to the shops or visiting the doctor. Some of those affected spoke about what they are facing and whether they feel the situation could have been avoided.
