Hide AdA spokesman said: “Flooding impacts will continue. Locations to be affected will include a small number of properties in Barcombe Mills, including The Anchor Inn.
“Monday should stay largely dry. Light rain Tuesday morning will be followed by the chance of heavy showers Tuesday afternoon (December 24).
“As long as the heaviest showers miss the River Ouse there should not be a significant rise in river levels through Barcombe.
“Further rain is forecast for Boxing day. Again, the current prediction is that river levels should only rise a small amount Thursday (December 26).
