Yorkshire Water does not publish a live status for this overflow; only the annual figures below are available.

"Not discharging" means the company's monitor reports no discharge right now — not that the water is clean. The feed publishes status only; no discharge volume is measured.

Year by year

The Environment Agency's official annual returns, counted the EA's way (12/24-hour spills). 2026 is our own running count, the same way, from Yorkshire Water's monitor log. The official figure is published next spring.

A spill is the EA's 12/24-hour count: the first 12 hours of a discharge count as one, each further 24 hours with discharge as one more. "Monitor" is the share of that year the monitor was working, so a 0 beside a working monitor is a real zero; "no data" means the monitor produced no usable data that year — not zero. Years before 2024 are matched to this site by name and location, because the EA's site IDs changed that year; a monitor figure beside one of them means the outlet's permit confirms the match.

Twin outlet

Yorkshire Water runs another overflow within 300 m that also discharges into Un-named Trib Of Sister Beck. They share the sewer and the storm, so one outlet's figures are only part of what reaches the water.

"High spill threshold not met" means this overflow did not spill often enough to trigger the EA's formal high-spill review for that year. It is not a statement that the spills were harmless.

Discharges we have recorded

39 discharge periods since 1 Jan 2024. 39 of them come from Yorkshire Water's own event-duration-monitoring records (published on Stream, Jan 2024 – Aug 2026); this overflow has no live feed, so nothing after that log is held. The official annual count is the figure to quote.

The year figures above use the EA's 12/24-hour counting method, so they are comparable with the official figures; the monitor log's 47 raw blocks were merged into 39 continuous discharge periods (gaps under 15 min joined).

Nearest live rain gauge: Rainfall gauge nr Tickton, 4.9 km away. Brown shading = when this overflow was discharging; ▼ = a discharge start.

Overflow shading is a timing match, not proof of cause — heavy rain and spills share a trigger. Times come from the water company’s event-duration monitor (site status only; no discharge volume is published).
