The gullies in the main street of the village I live in are regularly choked with the mud coming from the building sites at either end of the village.
I've lost count of the times it has been necessary to telephone the local council(s) to have them cleaned out.
The joys of living on the border of two unitary councils.......believe it or not, one side of the main road is Newcastle Upon Tyne, the other is North Tyneside
