Believe both nests with eggs swept away.
DAWLISH has suffered for the second time in three days as Storm Chandra brought a torrent of water through the town. The colossal amount of rain has led to roads being waterlogged and warnings to stay away from the Brook until water levels drops.
An amber weather warning for rain is in place for parts of south-west England alongside yellow weather warnings for both wind and rain. Part of a historic pier washed away and a sea wall protecting the railway line at nearby Dawlish partially collapsed and train services were suspended between Exeter St Davids and Plymouth on Saturday.
Would help if all the debris and rubble was cleared/dredged from the brook.
WHILE work continues on repairs at Dawlish following storm damage, Network Rail has closed the footpath. The path along the old sea wall between Dawlish and Dawlish Warren remains shut for safety reasons.
BOTH Black Swan nests in Dawlish have survived Storm Ingrid but they now face another onslaught with an Amber warning of more heavy rain from Storm Chandra. The Brook running through the town is already high but volunteers from WADE Waterways Around the Dawlish Environment will be monitoring water levels and adjusting sluice gates to control the flow.
TRAIN services are back running along the line at Dawlish following two areas of damage caused by Storm Ingrid. Two sections of the wall which runs between the line and the footpath were breached during the storm which hit on Friday night.
Event starts in 4 days 4-way lights and a suspended one-way system. Location: Piermont Place, Dawlish Monday, 2 February 2026 - Friday, 27 March 2026 Contact: 0344 346 2020
