Drain blocked - frequently causing big puddles
Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5198111.
There is a blocked drain (full of mud and with plants growing out of it) which means that there is frequently an enormous puddle here. It is so large that pedestrians cannot help getting their feet very wet (there is no pavement). This issue has been ongoing for many months/years, perhaps the drain is cleaned from time to time, but right now there is an issue.

I believe the location I have marked on the map is pretty much spot on. The blocked drain is very close to the building by the marker. I'm not sure there is a nearby street light, as you will see from my after dark picture where that area is extremely dark and hard to navigate. Approaching from the direction of Brabourne Rise, turn down St Dunstan's Lane, through the width restriction, proceed past the football club and past the next building (the squash court, seen in the pictures), the drain is right there.

Next to the tennis courts on old dunstonians lane. The kids can’t pass without their feet and legs getting soaked and muddy. I’m sure the secondary schools will be in touch too! It’s not a good look having muddy shoes, socks and trousers

I'm not clear why this issue is marked 'closed' - has it been fixed?

The drain is between street lights S736 and S737.
