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 3 areas linked to this gauge, nearest first.
The latest recorded level is 0.01Ml/d. 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.
