Build up of debris in ditch parallel to our property

Reported via desktop in the Roads and Carriageways category anonymously at 09:04, Thursday 5 February 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

There is now a great plethora of old leaves, branches, rotten trees and general rubbish in the ditch which runs parallel to our property. This is causing problems with drainage and also vermin. Can it be cleared, please?

Council ref: ENQ261080783

  • Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Oxfordshire County Council is not responsible for this problem as ditches/water channels are down to the riparian land owners to maintain and keep clear. If you feel this is causing pooling or flooding issues, you can report it to your local District Council under a Land Drainage issue. Kind regards
