Water Leak Update

The word on the street (Ferry Road) is that the ownership of Iwade's Ferry Road 5-6 year old leak(s) is in question still but that Southern Water fixed a couple of probably inconsequential smaller leaks when they were digging up the road last week but found a larger leak on the other side of the road. Watergate continues ...

According to the 2025 Annual Parish Meeting Minutes May 2025 Iwade Parish Council requested a water test and it showed that it was tap water so Southern Water's responsibility.
