Colin Bennett, whose home has also flooded in the past, said the current situation with the Thames was “ridiculous” and he “absolutely” thought more needed to be done to protect the area.
Another resident, Jeremy King, said flooding was “a constant worry and our house insurance reflects it”.
He said the area had been lucky since 2014, adding: “It makes you wonder whether it’s time for another nasty flood, in which case, it was a bit of a scramble back then and I don’t think anything further is in place now as far as I know.”
