Flooding expected. Take action now.
Heavy rain has fallen in the Upper Witham catchment causing the River Witham to rise. Low lying areas near to the River Witham are already flooded and we now expect isolated properties and villages near the River Witham from South Witham to Marston to be affected. Low lying properties near the river on Mill Lane in Great Ponton and Hougham Mill Lane in Marston are expected to be affected first. Remain safe and be aware of your local surroundings. Please avoid contact with flood water. Our staff are out in the area to check the flood defences, clear blockages, and assist the emergency services and council. We will be closely monitoring the situation and this message will be updated online and on FloodLine on 07/01/25, or before if the situation changes.
