Heavy rain fell for much of Sunday and into Monday across Northampton with experts predicting that caravans would be affected in the site by last night with rise river levels from the Nene.
Meadow Bay Villages, which bought Cogenhoe and Billing in March this year pumping millions of pounds of investments into the sites, told the Chron this afternoon that an evacuation process was underway.

"The safety of our owners and guests remains our top priority. We will keep you updated as best we can.”
