A warning to more than 600 households in a Surrey village not to drink their tap water has been lifted.
Thames Water issued the “do not drink” notice on 30 May after a fuel leak from a petrol station on Station Road.
Thames Water said it had taken water samples for testing from more than 100 properties in the area, all of which had come back clear.
However three schools are still under the "do not drink" notice- Bramley Oak Academy, St Catherine’s and Gosden House Schools.
Thames Water said the schools had complex internal piping, which was why it was taking longer.
They also said that they have taken the decision to replace some more pipes in Bramley on some of the smaller roads. They will write to households near this work with details in due course.
