Action will be taken in a Shropshire village to reduce the risk of flooding.

It follows serious flash flooding in Hadnall last autumn and winter which prompted Severn Trent to carry out "detailed investigations into the local sewer systems".

People living in the village had previously complained of sewage coming up through drains and entering their homes, gardens and streets.

Helen Morgan MP supports Hadnall residents

Following a meeting in Hadnall with parish councillors and residents affected by flooding, Helen Morgan MP raised a formal debate in Parliament, ‘Role of water companies in new housing development planning’, on 12th March, referencing many of Hadnall’s issues.
