The flood lagoons in Wethersfield Road appear to be working well. Here are some pictures taken by Wethersfield Road resident, Mrs Kay Beavis on Monday 10th February. Mrs Beavis said “Please find attached some images showing the lagoons at work earlier today. Without them our homes would most certainly have been flooded.”
