Hosepipe Ban in Nottinghamshire 2026

Published: Updated:

Nottinghamshire is served by 2 different water companies, and a ban is set per company, not per county. The county is genuinely the wrong unit of answer: your postcode decides.

Anglian Water has a ban in force. Severn Trent could not be confirmed, so check with them directly. Which of these applies at your address depends on which one bills you.
