Our Little Damšt. ogledov:4734This is the first time I'd seen water actually go over the sides of the dam. Normally the water just goes through the lower portion in the middle. Fortunately our stream was able to take the water safely away from the house and garden.

Sewage on Colletts Green Roadšt. ogledov:532High rates, undersized sewers. We have complained about this for years, but get the old "budget" story. The sewers were probably fine until the housing estate was built. No increased resources were put into the sewer, so the water bubbles up on Colletts Green Road, and then flows away into the River Severn through the run-off system.

Colletts Green Roadšt. ogledov:438The undersized sewers are again not up to the task. The water bubbles up, and then flows from the sewers into the highway run-off system. So sewage is escaping and going down into the River Severn. We have complained about this for 15 or more years, but nobody does anything about it. We installed our own mini sewage treatment plant so we weren't dependent upon the main sewers.

The Whitecroft "Canal" and Damšt. ogledov:411Water flowing over the dam during the worst rains I'd seen in England.

The River Teme -- In Full Floodšt. ogledov:397

|
Dead End Roadšt. ogledov:383Just below the road leading to the "new bridge" over the River Severn, near Powick.

|
Looking Towards Bransfordšt. ogledov:366Colletts Green Road, looking towards Bransford. The water fountain in the middle of the road is the sewer. It flows from the sewer into the highway drainage, and then down into the River Severn. Fortunately the height of the road keeps it from coming onto our property.

Our Little Dam, Working Full Timešt. ogledov:302Perhaps we should install a small hydroelectric plant?
|
|
The Small Stream, from the Bridgešt. ogledov:298This is normally just a muddy area in the garden. With the heavy rains, however, it became quite a quick flowing stream.

Whitecroft Damšt. ogledov:292I tried a flash photograph of the dam. The white specs are huge rain drops.
