Water is leaking into my car - how can I stop it?

Rain water is accumulating in the drivers foot-well, where should I look to clear a blocked drain?

Pop the bonnet and check the bulkhead vent well drains either side. Rainwater can also come in via the pollen filter if the top is not put back on properly, but that is on the passenger side.
