When it rains heavily the water from the road nears the back gate. It has not been coming through, but better prevent that anyway. Same for the road around. A small dyke of sand (many wheelbarrow loads, actually!) and some old concrete blocks to gently direct the water away...?
In mountainous regions with unpaved roads they often make diverter trenches every few hundred metres to prevent roads to be washed away. Basically a 10cm wide trench, slightly less than perpendicular to the road's direction. With cemented stones/brick/concrete on the bottom and on both sides so the whole construction doesn't fall apart when a car or truck passes over it. And so it stays in shape to divert the water the moment the deluge happens. Something similar might be an idea to implement for a more permanent solution.
