Blocked drains on Kings Road near Richmond Park brought flooding to at least one home in the area after heavy rains in recent days. Kingston resident Joanna Mitchell told the Surrey Comet water had risen into her cellar last week after drains became blocked on the outskirts of Richmond Park near to the Kingston Gate. Water started rising in the cellar of my house and being the weekend it was hard to find out how to get this remedied, she said. The constant stream of water, even when rain stops, has led to solid blockages to drains in the top part of Kings Road.
