It's certainly not cricketing weather in Chestfield.

Parts of the county were lashed by torrential rain over the weekend, leading to flooding in several areas.

Problems were reported in Maidstone, Aylesford, Yalding, Hadlow, Harrietsham, Birling, Minster, Wye and Canterbury, with some residents in villages finding themselves cut off.

The A28 between Ashford and Canterbury was closed on Sunday afternoon.
