A flood alert is also still in place at Burton Joyce, but all other flood warnings have now been lifted by the Environment Agency.

The A617 at Kelham Bridge remains closed, as is Chapel Lane in Farndon and Main Street in Bleasby.

The Riverside car park in Newark remains closed until further notice, as is the Town Wharf car park.
