A woman said she 'always panics when it rains' - claiming that sludge comes down her driveway due to blocked drains outside her home. Diane Constantine, of Farnborough Road in Clifton, called for a new drainage system to be installed when her 'beautiful' home was flooded in 2020.
But even with the new drain, retired Mrs Constantine said she was still facing problems when it rains. The 66-year-old claimed the drain was not 'properly maintained' by the city council, which the authority strongly refutes.
Nottingham City Council, however, said that both gullies outside Mrs Constantine's home were included in their targeted-cleaning regime and visited every three months. The council also said both gullies outside her home were found to have been in full operation.
