Please be aware that there are also Raw sewerage issues in this area that have occurred (possibly as a result of Surface water entering the sewer) during times of heavy or even medium rainfall. Gardens and, on one occasion houses are inundated with sewerage and surface water. Houses already have NRV's Fitted. Anglia water engineers also state that the pumping station flow rate cannot be increased any more with out increasing the capacity of the receiving sewer through the whole Village to the treatment works at Wrenningham end of the village.
Whilst there have been some recent minor improvements made to renew the pumps and better maintenance of culverts,further development that increases the load to the pump station can only mean increased risks to existing houses and residents in this area. The sewage handling throughout the village should be guaranteed significant improvement before any further development of sites in the new road are are given
