The Churchfields area of Salisbury is back on the map of coronavirus hotspots in the UK following a slight rise in confirmed cases.

Published on the government's coronavirus dashboard, the tool shows the areas with the most confirmed cases in the UK using data from Public Health England.

According to lab confirmed positive cases reported by October 3 with specimen dates between September 26 and October 2, most parts of Salisbury have between zero and two cases.

The only areas with more than two new cases recorded in this seven-day period are Churchfields, which has three and Stratford Sub Castle which has four.

Earlier this week, the map showed Churchfields had between zero and two cases after previously suggesting four had been recorded there.

However, the area is now highlighted once more after cases rose above two.

Amesbury, which previously fell in the between zero and two category has also seen a slight increase, with three cases being reported in the area.

On the map, which breaks down Covid cases by areas with an average population of 7,200 (Middle Layer Super Output Areas), areas with the lowest numbers are shown as white.

The light blue colour, only used in two parts of Salisbury, refers to places with three to nine coronavirus cases.

The data is updated each weekday, and shows the latest seven days for which near-complete data is available.
