Default 11 inches in a day in Dorset?

Hi:

Is there an archive of rainfall in the UK that I can check this
extraordinary claim?

Apparently Martinstown in Dorset 'holds the record for the most rain
to fall in a day since records began in the UK -- 11 inches'. No date
given, and the amount looks rather too vaguely accurate, if you see
what I mean.

Amy advice as to where to look on the internet most gratefully received.

TIA

Hugh
