On their way back from Mythe Barn, the crew then came across another stranded car.

They managed to help get the driver out of the flood water and into a safe area.

After this the crew then shared an appeal on their station's Facebook page, asking motorists to be flood aware.

They wrote: 'If you come across a flooded road do not enter and do not take any unnecessary risks.'

'Be flood aware and call 999 for assistance if required.'
