River Deben: water levels along the river

We have 2 gauges on the River Deben. Every gauge with a normal range is reading within it.

The gauges are in Suffolk. 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 the River Deben

The River Deben is a river in Suffolk, England. It rises to the west of Debenham in central Suffolk, though a second, higher source runs south from the parish of Bedingfield. The river passes through the port town of Woodbridge, turning into a tidal estuary before entering the North Sea at Felixstowe Ferry. The mouth of the estuary is crossed by a ferry connecting Felixstowe and Bawdsey.
