Flooding outside Gatley’s High Grove pub

by Lib Dem team on 18 November, 2009

Flooding by High Grove Pub, Silverdale Road

I’ve been taking a look this morning at flooding outside the High Grove pub on Silverdale Road in Gatley.

Something’s caused the water level to rise in the woodland between the road and Cheadle Royal.  The high water is pouring across the pavement, onto the road and down the hill to settle by the pub and the parade of shops.

It’s not clear at the moment what the problem is.  It could be a blocked culvert or something else.   I’ve spoken to someone from the Cheadle Royal team who’s investigating to see if it’s their issue, and I’ve contacted the Council officers to look at it from SMBC’s side too.

    hi,

    there is also regular flooding at the corner of Kingsway and gatley Road – making crossing very difficult. i have seen drainage investigations there before, but clearly it hasn’t worked.

    glad you enjoyed your vist to Yeshurun.
