Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 412259.
Drain seems to be permanently blocked/full of silt going back at least 2 years, contributing to river-like torrent flowing down Windmill Road on Sunday night which caused a devastating flood to our property for which we are now being rehomed for 6-12 months.
