The maximum height which can be recorded is & metres. At this level, the flood would top the bank and spread over the floodplain. Lower lying areas of Liverpool, east of this location flood regularly and have required houses to be demolished due to regular flooding.
As this location is not flood prone, it provides an easily accessible location to monitor rising river levels.
