Report a problem

Seen something the village should know about — a road under water, a tree down, a burst main? Tell us here and a volunteer will look at it.

This is not an emergency line. If anybody is in danger, ring 999.

What is happening? (required)

A sentence is plenty. “The shore road is under water past the bridge.”

Where is it? (required)

A road, a building, a corner — whatever you would say to somebody on the phone.

Your name

Optional. It is only shown to the volunteers who look at this, never on the site.

A number they can ring

Optional, and the most useful thing on this form — somebody can check with you in a minute instead of driving out to look.

A photograph, if you can

Optional, and worth a great deal — a photograph tells somebody whether to put a warning on the site far faster than a description does.

Taking one now also lets us see exactly where it is, which one from your gallery usually cannot.

Or use one you have already taken

Photographs or a short video, up to 32 MB — a phone video of more than a few seconds will usually be too big, and a photograph is nearly always enough. Location information is removed from photographs automatically. It cannot be removed from a video, so please do not send one if that matters to you.

If your photograph records where it was taken, a volunteer may show that spot on the village map while the notice is up — roughly, to about ten metres. Tell us in the message if you would rather they did not.

This is not an emergency line. If anybody is in danger, ring 999.
