Man fears he could be living next to the UK's biggest puddle

James Black fears he could be living next to the United Kingdom's biggest puddle. He says he measured the puddle at 100m long.

The puddle has reportedly formed several times since James moved into his Cheltenham home in Gloucestershire two years ago. Speaking to GloucestershireLive, he said: "Living opposite means me and my family are frequently drenched on leaving home. I have a one-year-old and it’s frankly unacceptable."

James said the “monster” puddle forms after moderate or heavy rainfall and takes up 50% of the road, meaning vehicles splash water onto the pavement as they drive through it. He said it had even splashed up to his front door.
