No action has been taken to clear the drains from Overdene down hill, through Ovington. many drains are blocked with debris and some are so overgrown that you can't even see them It is essential that this is done before winter. Risk of flooding and increased risk of surface water freezing

Drains in the village have been cleared but not by the side of the road from Overdone to Ovington, so there is still a river running past the turn to The Green bringing down debris which will block the village drains again.

Some have been cleared but ones on the hill down from Overdene are still blocked causing rivers to run down the road
