Flood alert for Groundwater flooding in West Ilsley, East Ilsley, Compton, Chilton and West Hagbourne
Get flood warnings by phone, text or email
Groundwater levels are continuing to rise slowly at our Hodcott borehole near West Ilsley, East Ilsley and Compton following rainfall over recent weeks. Groundwater levels are above normal and are at a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding. We expect levels to continue rising slowly and levels will remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall. Low-lying land, cellars and roads will therefore continue to be at risk of flooding.
Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week, on 4 February 2025, or as the situation changes.
