Common water damage problems in Derby
- A confluence in the middle of town, where the larger channel backs up the smaller
- A levee covering part of the ground, so protection ends at a line on a map
- A narrow floor between hills and water, with almost nowhere higher to go
- Interior drainage that must be lifted over the levee while the river is up
