Surface water flowing out of gully higher up the hill, running down and round the corner to another gully lower down. Stream of running water on carriageway for last two or three days at least, well after recent rain has finished. Suspect blocked pipe or even mains water leak ?

Still not fixed. Very bad on 31/12/17 with water halfway across the road on the dangerous bend below the overflowing gully. Will be extremely hazardous in icy conditions.

Still unresolved on 8 Jan 2018. Gully grate now subsided and obstructed with bituminous material. Catchpit on the bend deteriorating and floodwater entering through side wall. Drain pipe (c 150mm) across B1414 from pit appears also to be obstructed. It leads to the ditch opposite.

Gully grate and frame replaced and made good. Hopefully blocked pipes have also been cleared but unable to observe results due to long period of dry weather.
State changed to: Fixed
