South East Water supply issue returns across Tunbridge Wells

Water misery has returned for about 24,000 households across Kent and East Sussex – the day after a water firm said supplies had been restored for many.

South East Water (SEW) said about 12,000 properties’ supply had been returned on Tuesday after an issue at a treatment works made the taps go dry for about 24,000 households on Saturday.

But the company said earlier: “We are so very sorry to customers in Tunbridge Wells who are still experiencing a loss of water supply this morning.

“Due to the water quality issue that has returned, these customers are now back out of supply, meaning all 24,000 properties in Tunbridge Wells are currently without water.”

The water crisis, which is now in its fifth day, has seen customers in Tunbridge Wells, Pembury, Frant and Eridge experience a loss of water or low pressure.
