Geographic coordinates may reflect the access point for the gauge, and not the precise location in the watercourse that it is taking readings from.
Gauges connected to this river, and others nearby. A distance “by river” follows the river on the map; any other is in a straight line.
Distances by river: OS Open Rivers. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
Storm overflows whose water reaches this gauge on the mapped river network, nearest first by distance along the river. The status is each water company's monitor: it says whether an overflow is discharging, not how much or what it contains.
1 storm overflow is traced upstream of this gauge, the nearest 790 m away along the river. None of their monitors has a current status (offline, or no report in the last 2 hours), so whether any is discharging is not known.
Within 6 km in a straight line, but the river map cannot say whether their water passes this gauge.
9 other overflows within 6 km are downstream of this gauge or on another branch of the river network, so they are not listed.
These are the water companies' monitor statuses; a spill does not by itself explain a change in the gauge level. River connections and distances are traced on OS Open Rivers (edition 2026-04), which leaves out many small channels. Explore the sewage map →

Warnings apply to a whole flood area, not necessarily this exact spot. Years before 2006 aren't covered by the EA's historic record.
Flood warnings and alerts are issued for whole areas. These are the 28 areas linked to this gauge, nearest first.
The latest recorded level is 0.04m. Compare it with the recent history on the chart above to judge whether levels are unusually high.
Based on the most recent readings, the level is currently steady. The chart above shows the last 12 hours of measurements by default (up to 7 days), updated roughly every 15 minutes.
Readings are supplied by the Environment Agency gauge. FloodRadar checks for updates roughly every 15 minutes; the timestamp above shows how recent the latest available reading is.
