Local Knowledge
Drainage In Woodthorpe: What We Know
Woodthorpe is in Gedling borough, just outside the Nottingham city boundary, between Mapperley, Daybrook, Sherwood and Arnold. Road gullies here are Nottinghamshire County Council's, although streets just over the boundary in Sherwood are the city's.
The Greater Nottingham water cycle study (2010) named Woodthorpe, with neighbouring Daybrook, among the Gedling locations where records of past surface-water flooding pointed to the need for a surface water management plan. Nottinghamshire County Council's flood history also lists Woodthorpe among the places with recorded flooding in 2013 and 2019.
Just over the boundary, a small watercourse draining part of Woodthorpe Grange Park overtopped into the sewer on Winchester Street in Sherwood during the storm of 23 July 2013, adding to flooding there, Nottingham City Council found. Keeping gullies, channel drains and soakaways clear helps limit how much water runs off your property in a downpour.
