POLICY C4S (008) – THE LODGE The site cannot be accessed safely. Water Lane is a narrow country lane where two cars cannot pass each other and totally unsuitable for heavy goods traffic, caravans, show ground equipment being pulled on trailers etc.. After heavy rain torrents of water flow down Water Lane from the fields elevated to the north east causing regular flooding at the junction of The Street and Roundwell.
