UPDATE:A spokesman for South West Water said: 'South West Water apologises to customers in West Alvington, Woolston and Malborough whose water supply may be temporarily disrupted while we work to repair a burst water main on the A379 near Churchstow.'We estimate the disruption will last for up to 3 hours and anticipate supplies will be restored by 7pm.'A MAJOR water leak has occurred on the A379, outside Parkland Caravan and Camping Site, with suggestions that the water supply may have to be shut off.

Tracy, of Parklands, sent us a photo of the leak and said: ’The guys doing the work have told us they expect to have to shut off the water supply for Kingsbridge, Loddiswell, West Alvington and Salcombe for a short while this afternoon whilst they investigate and hopefully repair today.’

We have contacted South West Water for more information, they are currently looking into it.

We will give you more information as soon as we receive it.
