In All Stretton, a care home was evacuated and a wall collapsed into the village.
Communities have rallied together after heavy rain and flash floods caused damage and disruption across Shropshire.
At Stretton Hall Care Home in All Stretton village, the car park filled up with water before the building flooded. Villagers said they believed a stream that normally runs under Shrewsbury Road became blocked, causing floodwater to pour down the street and through homes instead. The club were just an hour away from hosting a match between Wolves Academy and a youth side from Monaco, France, when the floods hit.
Chief executive of the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust, Nick Ralls, said Coalbrookdale Museum of Iron and Enginuity experienced storm and rain damage and was closed but would reopen as soon as possible.Church Stretton mayor Andy Munro praised people's "fantastic community spirit".
