Scores of Nantwich homes were without water for most of the day after a burst pipe.

Engineers from United Utilities worked throughout the afternoon to fix the leak on Shrewbridge Road, Nantwich.

It was first reported at about lunchtime, with many nearby houses without supplies or with very low water pressure.

A spokesman for United Utilities said tonight (June 10): “Our team of engineers has finished repairing the leaking pipe on Shrewbridge Road and the water should now be flowing normally again through your taps.

“We’re sorry if this has affected you and thank you for your patience.

“Because there’s been some disturbance to the pipes you may notice the water is a little discoloured, please check our Discoloured Water page for more information.”

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
