I live in Somerset (UK) which is notoriously odd topographically-wise. For example Glastonbury Tor is or was also known as the Isle of Avalon (it really was an island once) and many old English village names on the Levels basically mean island or marsh or similar. Large parts of Somerset were drained or "reclaimed" from the sea, often involving a bunch of cloggies ... sorry Dutch engineers! King's Sedgmoor Drain is still quite a decent engineering effort and the king in question was Charles I and that was one of the more modern schemes.
You've now really piqued my interest on this. I doubt a raindrop on Yeovil will end up in the Bristol channel but I'm not completely sure.
