Latest flood alert advice from the Environment Agency: Continued high groundwater levels may lead to flooding. Flooding of low-lying areas and roads is possible. Groundwater levels are high but slowly declining at our Hodcot borehole affecting West Ilsley, East Ilsley, Compton, Chilton and West Hagbourne. We expect levels to remain high over the next few weeks and levels will remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall. Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. Residents are advised to consider property resilience measures and ensure that pumps are working where they have been installed. Keep up to date with groundwater levels on the ‘Get Flood Warnings’ site on gov.uk. This message will be updated by 4 PM, on the 21 April 2026, or as the situation changes.
