water-made canals
British Trenches were waterlogged due to 2 key reasons:The geography of the trenches meant that they were largely flat and below sea level. This meant water was trapped in the trenches as they were dips in the groundThe trenches also had poor drainage systems, which did not allow water to escape
In the trenches, there was water. Like when you can't play a football match, you have a waterlogged pitch. If you stood in the mud and water in the trenches for too long, you caught trench foot, which is sometimes fatal if you don't remove the gangrene.

Trenches, or deep sea trenches.
Many things made it possible to fire from the trenches. Mortars and field artillery were often fired from trenches. Trenches usually had berms (low dirt walls) built in front of them with firing positions along the top of the berm. Trenches sometimes had benches or ladders for gunners and snipers.
