THE end of 2020 saw river levels in Ludlow rise leading to fears that low lying parts of the town could be at risk of flooding.
Last February there was extensive damage to part of the town and an emergency centre was briefly opened.
River levels are constantly monitored by the Environment Agency and information can be obtained from a number of websites.
