History

Not enough readings for a chart yet. History builds up with every update.

What this means

At 0.18 m, Quorn Brook at Quorn, Memorial Gardens is at a record low. That reading is from 22 Sept 2026, 10:15 BST, so the gauge may be offline or reporting late.

It has now dropped past the published record low of 0.22 m (January 5, 2026).

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly.

Autumn rain usually starts to lift rivers again after the summer low.

Low, clear water makes fish wary, and anglers often do better early and late in the day. For canoeists, shallow riffles mean scraped hulls and the odd portage.

Flood warnings for the area come from the Environment Agency.
