A Nottinghamshire man has been dealing with waste including tampons and sanitary towels running near his back garden for 23 weeks. James Williams, 42, says that he has been "disgusted" by the sewage and by the amount of time it is taking authorities to resolve the issue.
Mr Williams' property on Woodhouse Gardens in Ruddington, where he lives with his two daughters, has a back garden which is situated next to a culvert and open waterway. Although carrying water to a nearby brook, the waterway is currently littered with waste and even a dead rat.
Authorities have now launched investigations into what is causing the issue. A Severn Trent Spokesperson said: "We are aware of the issue affecting the culvert at Woodhouse Gardens. We are working with relevant authorities to identify the cause."
