Every other house in the road suffers from it, and unfortunately we live in an odd-numbered house - next door is fine.
There is a hole in the cellar floor, through which the water backs up. So I have a pump in the hole with a float, so that when it gets too much it pumps it up the hose pipe in the wall, out through the garden and into the road in front of the house.
Whereupon it trickles back through the drainage system into your cellar.
Perpetual Motion...
My sister's house in Brum has the same sort of thing... with an added toad for a while.
