This is a current flood area. In the last heavy rains season people in Broom Grove and Orchard Way had some significant and considerable damage to their homes....some where moved out for over 6 months and others lost animals in garages and low floor levels due to the water. This was due to poor management of the water from the fields and A1M.....where will this water go if buildings are built. A flood risk for all developments?
