It looked like being a soggy Christmas for some as rising floodwaters threatened to disrupt the festive period.
Tewkesbury Abbey, which has regularly been affected by flooding, was one building to be encircled by water as it prepared for the Christmas season.
The Severn was also causing concern in Ironbridge, where flood barriers were being raised to try and contain the risk at the heritage site, as well as in regular flooding spot Bewdley where barriers have also been installed.
