There is flooding across west Cornwall this evening as roads are turned into rivers following a day of heavy rainfall.
One area particularly badly hit is Cadgwith where water could be seen pouring down the hill this afternoon.

The road effectively became a waterfall as it rushed along the road and down into the harbour.
These incredible photos and video were taken by Steven Legge, who lives nearby and works as a postman in the area.

There is also heavy flooding on the road out of Porthleven at Methleigh Bottoms, where sections of the road have become lakes.
Doug Evans took this photo this afternoon, showing the road almost impassable.

And in Porthoustock the bridge across the river has disappeared due to water flowing over the top of it.
