Surface water pooling outside my back gate making access difficult without swimwear
Reported via mobile in the Blocked - Flooding of Road/Path category anonymously at 13:38, Tue 25 November 2025
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8463226.
The lane to the rear of 30 Meldon often has pooled water which restricts access to my property from the rear. Cannot identify the cause. I’d appreciate some remedial works to stop this happening as I access the property from the rear.
