“All nineteen properties in our village are dependent on small private water supplies. The source of the supplies is a mixture of small burns and seepages from the hill. My neighbour’s supply is from a small seepage which regularly runs dry. When this happens, we have a system where I top up her tanks from my own pipeline. I have been trying for 20 years to get a public mains supply to the village but have so far been unsuccessful.”
