Pymmes Brook: water levels along the river

We have 3 gauges on Pymmes Brook. 2 of them read below normal for the date, and none is running high.

The gauges are in Greater London. Reading the gauges in order shows how a rise or a dry spell travels downstream, usually over a day or more on a big river. Autumn is often a low point for rivers after the summer, until steady rain returns.

About Pymmes Brook

Pymmes Brook is located in North London and named after William Pymme, a local landowner. It is a minor tributary of the River Lea. The brook mostly flows through urban areas and is particularly prone to flooding in its lower reaches. To alleviate the problem the brook has been culverted in many areas. Part of it is a Site of Borough Importance for Nature Conservation, Grade II. The Pymmes BrookERS community group works to improve the health of the river and its tributaries.
