Flood Warning: Groundwater flooding in West Ilsley, East Ilsley, Compton, Chilton and West Hagbourne

Groundwater levels are currently rising at our Hodcott borehole near West Ilsley, East Ilsley and Compton as a result of recent rainfall.



Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and have now reached a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding within the next few weeks. We expect levels to continue slowly rising over the next few weeks and levels will remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall. Low-lying land 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, 07/01/2025, or as the situation changes.
