51.984128 1.072683

The road is constantly flooded, the drains are blocked, the main road through the village is closed and has been for a couple of weeks so no alternative route to get to my horse field, i have no choice but go through it twice a day if it gets deeper it will not be able to get through without killing my car! This problem happens every time it rains, I purposely go the other way to avoid it but obviously with the road closed have no choice!
