Wessex Water overflow WSX10034

Wessex Water · WSX10034

This page collects what public records say about one storm overflow: its permit, how often it spilled, and the improvements recorded for it. It is not a water test and does not say whether the water is fit to swim in. A spill count is not a finding that the overflow broke its permit: overflows may spill in heavy rain under their permits, and nothing here can tell whether a spill was allowed.

The record

CompanyWessex Water
Environment Agency idWSX10034
Name in the company's live feed–
Permit referenceNot in the 2024 or 2025 returns this build holds.

The permit reference is as the Environment Agency's annual returns give it. The EA's consents register holds the permit itself, but its licence allows internal use only, so its conditions are not published here.

Swim spots downstream

SwimSignal counts this overflow at 1 swim spot. km is along the river network, through any lake on the way. The model weight is SwimSignal's estimate of how much this overflow's spills count at that spot, not a measurement (how it is worked out).

Spills each year

No annual return in this build is filed under this id, so there are no yearly figures to show. The overflow may be in the returns under another id.

Recent spills

When this page was updated (31 Oct 2026, 20:24), its company's live feed showed it not discharging.

Each spill's start and stop times: not listed here. The Environment Agency publishes them for 2024 on, under the Open Government Licence (its start/stop files).

Improvements recorded

No improvement or investigation entry for this overflow is in this build's 2024 and 2025 returns.

Not published here: Wessex Water's planned dates (its overflow plan layers), which carry no licence; Water UK's National Storm Overflows Plan, whose terms forbid reuse without written permission.

Dear Wessex Water,

I am writing about your storm overflow Wessex Water overflow WSX10034 (Environment Agency id WSX10034). It is upstream of River Avon, Warleigh Weir, Bath, where people swim.

Could you tell me what is planned for this overflow, and when the work is expected to be finished?

The public record I am referring to is here: https://swimsignal.co.uk/overflow/WSX10034/

Thank you.
