In addition, development of the area of restraint (1E) threatens local houses with a real risk of flooding. At present during heavy rain, the run off is slowed by the pasture and crops. It backs up by the malins and is relieved into the Myton School playing fields. It has been shown that any earthworks in the area floods houses. Myton Gardens was flooded when one development was carried out. More recently a property on Myton Crescent was flooded when building work was done at the old Trinity School site. Developing the Myton Road site would threaten ALL of the houses south of the Myton Road. I also give you notice that if this development is built then I expect the council to provide insurance cover should I be unable to obtain cover due to flooding as you have been warned.
