Water UK's map of active combined sewer overflows across Devon and Cornwall, recorded at 9 PM GMT on February 15th 2026

If you are resident in Devon or Cornwall you may have noticed that we've had a lot of rain recently?

Which has some unfortunate side effects.

Here are today's updates on coastal and inland #SewagePollution from South West Water and Water UK respectively:

Currently Marlborough Sewage Treatment Works has been discharging untreated 💩 continuously for 273 hours straight into the Kennet.
Additionally the infamous sewer lid at Stonebridge Wild River Reserve has 'popped' and the contents of the sewer pipe has poured out.

A recent example illustrates a perennial problem with publicly available #SewagePollution information in the UK.

A multi-day overflow at #Exmouth finished at some point overnight.

You can't see that when using SWW's #WaterFitLive web site though.

However, see the #WestDevonCSO database!

Following the passage of #StormChandra across SW England, the number of recently active CSOs shown on South West Water's WaterFit Live web site is slowly reducing.

However the @metoffice.gov.uk is forecasting more heavy rain for later today:

There are now many 🚨flood warnings🚨 across the South West Peninsula.

Another unfortunate side effect of the recent rain is #SewagePollution all around our coast.

Our local big beach break at Widemouth Bay has been suffering since 6:38 PM last night.

We’d all like to enjoy #SussexBeaches without #SewagePollution. If Government’s planned new homes are added to creaking sewerage system ignoring capacity/upgrade timing, more pollution is likely. See: www.cpresussex.org.uk/news/new-approach-needed-to-development-and-sewage-infrastructure/
