Wessex Water has lifted the “boil water” notice it issued to around 250 properties in the Bratton Seymour, Shepton Montague, Yarlington, and Maperton areas as a precautionary measure on Tuesday after it found the water supply was not of its usual standard.
Free bottled water was provided to customers on a daily basis while the company carried out a detailed investigation to determine the issue.
This afternoon customers are being told that their water supply is back to normal. The water company also said that all customers have been notified that they will receive compensation in due course.
Nigel Martin, water supply general manager, said:
“We have carried out extensive tests and they all show that the quality of the water is excellent and there is now no need to boil it. We identified a problem at our reservoir, which has been drained, cleaned and refilled.”
