Drainage - help and advice

These pages have been developed to provide further information on surface water drainage and sewage, particularly to make responsibilities clear.

'Frequently Asked Questions' is a recommended starting point if you have a specific query with regard to land drainage or sewage, otherwise much more detailed information is provided in the land drainage and sewage pages.

If you are concerned that you are at risk of flooding, you should familiarise yourself with the flooding and emergency planning pages for advice, where you can also find information on flood risk where you live.
