A tidal gauge: its level rises and falls with the tide twice a day, so "rising" here is usually the tide coming in.
Every gauge on the River Teign →A level is shown only when the gauge's latest reading is under 6 hours old. Distances are straight-line from the centre of Edginswell's monitored area.
24 storm overflows within 5 km of the centre of Edginswell's monitored area. None of the 23 with a live status is discharging right now, and 1 has no current status.
