ANOTHER area in Colchester has been added to a map of the areas worst impacted by Covid cases.

The online map, which is part of the Government's coronavirus data dashboard, shows where positive cases have been in recent days divided into areas.

It is based on pillar 1 and pillar 2 testing data from Public Health England and covers the period of September 21 to 27.

In the Colchester borough, Shrub End is the latest place to be added to the list.

The map says during the period there were three positive cases of coronavirus.

The most cases during this period were in Abbey Field where there were four.

In Highwoods there were also three cases.

Other areas in the borough have recorded between none and two cases.

Small cases are grouped and not individually identified.
