The Shrewsbury flood, which occurred in February 2020, was primarily caused by heavy rainfall that led to the River Severn and its tributaries overflowing. Prolonged wet weather combined with already saturated ground conditions contributed to the severity of the flooding. Additionally, factors such as urban drainage systems being overwhelmed and the topography of the area exacerbated the situation, resulting in significant flooding in parts of the town.

Yes. many towns are now built on flood plains , which, like Shrewsbury, makes them very liable to sever flooding. Hope this helps, Becki.x
Shrewsbury is built upon a flood plain on a meander bend of the River Severn so the area is bound to get floods and water comes in at Shrewsbury in all direction (Shrewsbury is surrounding by the River Severn) the surface (concrete) which it is built upon is an impermeable surface so the water can not infiltrate it- increase and encouraging surface run off.
