Reported to local resident by drain cleaners as a broken drain under street level

Reported via desktop in the Blocked drain category anonymously at 09:21, Sun 7 September 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2854944.

Reported to me (Parish Councillor) Resident Concern – Drainage Issue (No. 30)

I have been contacted by the resident at No. 30 regarding an ongoing drainage issue. The resident reports that a previous clean revealed the drain beneath the cover to be split or broken. As a result, they are experiencing damp and unpleasant odours.

I reported this matter previously, and while an investigation was carried out, the resident observed that this appeared to consist of two vans being present for a couple of hours without any evident inspection taking place.

During a recent period of heavy rainfall, the drain flooded once again, and the resident has raised their concerns with me for a second time.

Could we please request either:

A further, thorough investigation of the drain at No. 30, or

  • Just to confirm this issue is adjacent to 30 Station Rd Kirton.

    It appears the pin on the map is in the incorrect location. It’s PE201LD
