After residents, the Parish Council and Claire Young met Wessex
Water on site in November, the water company took a number of actions.
Odour loggers were installed at the discharge points from the Kidney
Hill and abattoir pumping stations from 12th Dec to 8th Jan 2013. No
hydrogen sulphide was detected at the former but the other logger
failed, probably due to being 'drowned out' during high flows in the
sewer following extremely heavy rainfall. Wessex will reinstall when the
weather improves.
A smell complaint in Newman Close was traced to a cracked
pipe and sump which was retaining sewage. This will be replaced. Wessex
Water are currently investigating a sewage flooding incident in a
garden in the village.
