The Environment Agency's gauges on the River Chelt sit at Charlton Kings and College Road — upstream of most of the town. But the Chelt runs culverted through the centre, and the flooding Cheltenham remembers, in July 2007, was not a river rising where a gauge could see it: it was surface water and the culvert backing up across roughly 600 buildings in an afternoon. If your quarter is going under, tell your neighbours here — one shared fact several people can confirm.

How this works
The Environment Agency's own gauges (Charlton Kings, College Road) and flood warnings are the authoritative channel — this board is neighbours confirming each other where those gauges cannot see, on the culverted stretch through town.
