B1195 Halton Holegate, drain near OAK Tree Cottage 3 word enforced.decay.overlaid
Reported via desktop in the Blocked drain category anonymously at 12:47, Friday 9 January 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2868421.
This drain is blocked and overflowing. The drain above it is working and draining underground in the this drain, however as this drain is blocked the water is bubbling up from this drain, running down the round to the next drain. The water is overflowing from the road onto our verge and undermining the curb and our gate posts. This has been an ongoing issue, however when it has been reported the drains around it have been repaired but not this one. The repair needed is not surface repair it is a block drain between two drains.

This is to advise pot hole has now appeared opposite side of the road to the drain earlier reported, as you can see from the photo's the road has been dug up before, to this drain. This would indicate the area of road has been undermined and could collapse and cause an accident. Please note the pot hole is big enough to damage a vehicle and cause an accident.
Both the drain and the pot hole issues are on a bend with limited visibility and I am concerned there could be a serious accident.

Is there an update on when the repair is being done. The water is like a small river running adjacent to my Garden Gate, vehicles driving pass and causing water being sprayed over my gate and causing it to turn black and starting to rot. The Gate was installed this time last year so should last 10 yrs but at the rate it will not already turning black, even though it has been treated. This is due to constantly getting soaked.

Please note, we reported the issue with Anglian Water as the water that is runni1ng down the road is clean water and has been leaking for some time now. They say they sent an engineer out at 16:55 and at 18:35 they have sent us an update, see attached. Please note: we can see the area in question from our house and during this time we did not see any Anglian Water engineers, so am a bit dumb founded to say the least on how they can say they have found this is nothing to do with them.
