Blocked drain STILL BLOCKED!!

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
The small drain between my house and St Mary’s Primary School I have reported as blocked on several occasions over the last three years. It has never been cleared in that time. It is blocked and when it rains the pavement is flooded towards my house and recently flooded my cellar for the first time in over 200 years! The drain has been blocked so long it was covered with earth and leaves and not obvious. I have now cleared the leaves and soil as much as I can and in the drain itself as far down as I can to an elbow about 12-15” down. I cannot reach further where it remains blocked with water backing up. If necessary I will employ a professional to clear it and send the bill to the council but perhaps you would like to save money by doing it for me.
