Flood alert for Groundwater flooding in the Great Shefford area

Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

Groundwater levels are currently stable at our Northfield Farm borehole in the Great Shefford area. However, levels remain above normal for this time of year and are at a level where communities may be affected by groundwater. Low-lying land, roads and cellars may be at risk of flooding.

We expect levels to remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall.

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 in a week, 28/01/2025 or as the situation changes.
