Bottled water stations opened in Surrey after issues at treatment works

Residents of Cranleigh faced with empty taps and low pressure as country braved another heatwave

Bottled water stations have been opened in Surrey as residents were left without water due to a technical issue on one of the hottest days of the year.

Many residents woke up to a diminished water supply or low pressure in their taps due to complications at Netley Mill water treatment works, which serves 8,500 properties in Cranleigh and surrounding villages.
