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.
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 10.3 km away along the river. 0 report discharging now, 1 reports not discharging.
Within 6 km in a straight line, but the river map cannot say whether their water passes this gauge.
1 other overflow within 6 km is downstream of this gauge or on another branch of the river network, so it is 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 →

In a typical year this gauge reaches its typical high of 0.93 m on about 17 days. This year so far: 25 days.
Counted from each day's highest reading. Days with missing or implausible readings are left out. The darker part is days above 1.43 m, the level this gauge tops only a few days a year.
The current level is 0.39m, which is within the typical range of 0.31 to 0.93m. Flooding is unlikely at this level.
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.
The typical range at this station is 0.31m to 0.93m, estimated by FloodRadar from SEPA historical readings. Levels above 0.93m are higher than usually seen and may indicate a flood risk.
Readings are supplied by the SEPA gauge. FloodRadar checks for updates roughly every 15 minutes; the timestamp above shows how recent the latest available reading is.

The Environment Agency’s flood maps cover England. In Scotland the Area map’s Flood Zones layer shows SEPA’s likelihood of flooding from rivers and the sea (darker: medium or high likelihood; lighter: low), drawn by FloodRadar from its copy of SEPA’s flood maps where it holds them. These are likelihoods, not flood zones, and an empty patch is not an absence of flood risk. Check SEPA for official Scottish flood warnings and information.
