Message from Lower Halstow's Flood Warden

Lower Halstow Village Sign

I would like to ask that all landowners within Lower Halstow, check that their land drains are excavated, enabling surface land water to flow to the estuary twice a day without hindrance.


There are many sluice gates on land owners land, therefore, please can you check that they are all working properly, again helping the surface water to drain out to the estuary twice a day.


The weather, as we are told, is getting warmer and wetter, and the surface water at present is causing concern, therefore, if everyone has assisted, by clearing all gullies and checking sluice gates, we are doing our level best to avoid flooding within the Village.


Again to assist Lower Halstow Village if there are any blocked drains, to contact the Parish Clerk and I will attempt to have them cleared asap. We have at present an ongoing request with KCC, as a drain. that is very near a right of way, to be assessed, as the actual path itself may be the cause of the very blocked drain.
