A solids separator for use in a sewer overflow chamber having an inlet, flow chamber and main outlet, whereby liquid, having solids entrained therein, flows from the inlet through the flow chamber to the outlet, the solids separator comprising: an overflow weir over which liquid flows during overflow into a separation chamber; a filter in the separation chamber that filters solids and allows liquid to pass through to an overflow outlet; and a return outlet through which filtered solids return back into the flow chamber, wherein the filter includes an array of vertical filter members spaced from a top of the overflow weir such that a liquid flowing over the weir passes through the filter members.
