A statement reads: "We're really sorry but some customers in Northampton may have very low water pressure or no water at all.

"We're working to repair a burst water main so we can get your supply back to normal as soon as possible, but it is proving to be a complex job that is taking longer than we had originally hoped."

An estimated restoration time has been given as 2pm.

A spokesperson added: "We're really sorry we've inconvenienced you and thanks for your patience."
