River Axe (Upper) from Winsham to Axminster, including Chard Junction and Weycroft

Flooding is expected throughout Sunday, 24th November. Heavy rain has been falling in the East Devon area over the weekend and will continue during Sunday. This is causing the River Axe to remain high and flooding is expected. Property flooding is expected at Chard Junction, Axe Farm, Coaxdon and Weycroft Cottages, Mosterton, Clapton, Tytherleigh and Broom, Axminster (Stoneybridge). Flood waters may be deep and fast flowing in these areas. People in this area should consider taking action now and install any property flood resilience measures. Remain safe and be aware of your local surroundings. We will be closely monitoring the situation, and this message will be updated if the situation changes.
