    Or get in touch with the Environment Agency or Yorkshire Water.

    Someone has to own the culvert.

    The land used to be owned by the ncb until the area was finished for mining and then converted to residential housing.

    Council are pathetic and cant even be bothered to answer my emails or calls - its always il get someone to call you back and they never do. They wont even confirm if the lane is adopted or not - but i suspect its not.

    No idea what the crack is at all with the drainage but i do know the bloody people that put the electric supply cable up the lane smashed the pipe to pieces which has caused this.

    Had a great day yesterday digging it all out. :(

    A drainage ditch so in theory, yes! ;)

    But if that ditch is over 1.5m wide its called a bridge.
