Some of the maximum time/accumulations a
5 minutes: 13.9mm near Crewkrene & Dunkeswell
30 minutes: 46.6mm near Crewkrene (Bruton, Sherborne & Dunkeswell
25mm)
60 minutes: 56.8mm near Crewkrene (Bruton 40mm)

.... thanks again: I just wondered how they compared with the list of
'extreme' rainfall events and none of them at face value are
threatening the various records. The 56.8 mm in 60 mins for example,
set against the published record which I believe is 92 mm in 60 mins
at Maidenhead (Berkshire) in 1901 (July).
