Residents in parts of Lewisham have been left without water today (October 11) due to a burst pipe.

Thames Water engineers are working to repair the burst pipe on Vulcan Road, affecting areas with SE4 and SE14 postcodes.

These include Brockley, Western Ladywell, Honor Oak, Crofton Park, New Cross, and Deptford.

The company has apologised for the disruption, stating that water is being redirected from other parts of the network to help alleviate the situation.

A Thames Water spokesperson said: "We know how inconvenient it is if you lose your water supply, so we’ll work hard to get things back."
