Anglian Water said: “We’re really sorry but some customers in Horncastle may have very low water pressure or no water at all.

“We’ve identified a burst water main in your area that we’re working hard to get fixed, so that we can get your supply back to normal as soon as possible.

“This should be by 4pm today but we’ll update this message if anything changes.

“Again we’re really sorry we’ve inconvenienced you and thanks for your patience.”

It is advised that after any interruption to the water supply it may look a little cloudy or discoloured when it’s back on. When this happens just run the tap for a few minutes and it should be clear.
