Is that the Yorkshire Broads, or the Yorkshire Levels?
Last year we had a village flooded, for several months, and it wasn't anywhere near sea level, or a river. The hills were so sodden that they drained off onto the roads. One lane up the side of a hill turned into a shallow river. Numerous roads were closed for many weeks. We had some heavy rain about 15 years back but otherwise I don't recall the sort of flooding we've been getting over the last few years.

We had the same around a year ago.
The fields surrounding the country lanes were so saturated that the water just ran off and flooded the lanes.
It only affected them for a day or two though.
It's been bordering on doing the same for a few days now...
