Rossett is a village, community and electoral ward in Wrexham County Borough, Wales. Rossett is served by the A483 road.
Flood Zones, Warning Areas and Surface Water are Environment Agency maps and cover England only. Rossett 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.
Rossett is monitored by 1 Environment Agency river level station on the Alun, in Wrexham. Water levels are updated every 15 minutes, providing real-time flood monitoring for the area.
The Alun is monitored by 1 station (Rossett River Station). Each station records water levels continuously, with data synced to FloodRadar every 5 minutes.
