The map of Llandrinio’s gauges and flood maps loads as you reach it.

Flood Zones, Warning Areas and Surface Water are Environment Agency maps and cover England only. Llandrinio is in Wales, so they draw little or nothing here — that is where the map ends, not an absence of flood risk. Natural Resources Wales’s warning areas have their own pages under flood areas.

The watercourse nearest Llandrinio

The nearest watercourse on the river map is Afon Hafren (River Severn), about 70 m from the middle of Llandrinio's gauges. It flows on to the sea.

A gauge downstream shows water that has already passed this point; one upstream sees it first. Distances along the river are from the point on Afon Hafren (River Severn) nearest the middle of Llandrinio's gauges. From Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers), which leaves out small streams, ditches and culverts, so a nearer one may exist. This describes where water goes on the map; it says nothing about flooding at any address. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
