Flood alerts, meaning flooding is possible, were also issued for the River Severn in Shropshire following heavy rain
The EA said the flood water was not expected to rise further but would remain high for some time.
In Shrewsbury, the car parks in Frankwell were closed on Thursday and people visiting the town centre were advised by Shropshire Council to instead use buses or the park and ride service, or walk or cycle.
People planning to visit Theatre Severn for its pantomime were urged to park in the town's multi-storey car park on Raven Meadows instead.
