A pensioner says he is worried that raw sewage will flood his home if a fault drain is not fixed. Paul Nesbitt has faeces running past his home due to the problem.
He has lived in his village home for six years, but said this year the ancient drainage could no longer cope with heavy rain. It has left sewage running along the footpath by the side of his home. It then flows into the road outside and into a nearby stream, said Paul, 73.
Paul, who has won the highest number of trophies in Cornwall with his singing, told CornwallLive: "We've had 11 tankers come to the village to try to sort out the drains in two weeks. They came to clear the sewage pipe in the middle of the road, but it's not working.
