Re-laying of water main 2023-2024 updated 10 April 2024
Work now completed
December 2023 - water running continuously down Jack Straw's Lane
This is not due to any leakage from the water main or a drain. Water is being pumped from a part-built cellar, which cannot be 'tanked' (lined) until it has been completely drained. This is a real problem at present because of wet weather.
Also, the part-built swimming pool in the garden needs to be drained before getting its lining. No work has been done on the swimming pool since November 2022. Since then a great deal of water has accumulated in and around the pool area. As of the week beginning 18 December 2023, this has requires a very large quantity of additional water to be pumped onto the roadway; that is why water can sometimes be seen running down the roadway throughout the night.
