Homes around Swindon and the surrounding area have been left without water.

Thames Water first received a report about the problem at 4.30pm on Saturday.

It is affecting the GL7, SN2, SN4, SN5, SN6, and SN15 postcodes.

A spokesperson said: “We’re sorry if you’re experiencing low pressure or no water. 

“We’re currently repairing a burst pipe close to the Braydon Crossroads, SN5, we’re really sorry if this has disrupted your day by causing low pressure or no water.

“We aim to get the water back on within three hours of starting our repairs, which we began at about 6.30pm.

”Thank you for your patience while we work hard to restore your supplies.

“We know how inconvenient it is if you lose your water supply, so we’ll work hard to get things back to normal as soon as we can.“
