Flooding on road
Reported via iOS in the Blocked Ditch Causing Flooding category anonymously at 08:49, Tuesday 25 November 2025
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8461141.
When it rains this area fills with water starting from the cottage side. Last night the whole road was covered with deep water making it very dangerous as spray from a passing vehicle totally covered our vehicle obscuring our vision for several seconds
