Drains/stream

Reported via mobile in the Problem with drainage category anonymously at 13:10, Friday 10 January 2025

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6961754.

I am 72 and i continually clean the drains outside my property to avoid the drains becoming blocked .

I was cleaning them at the weekend at 4am in the morning due to the heavy rain overnight.

Is it possible please to have a furthur drain added to help with the water running off the road from the field behind .And either a larger drain or a second one across the road bey the OLd Coach

Also the stream behind Guidings Way that runs through the field hasn’t been maintained in years and I believe this is adding to the problem. The water is almost up to the top of my wellingtons and I am sure with additional drains and maintenance of the field the problem could be reduced a great deal.

Old Brook House. Ryeford Road South.
