Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
RAW sewage from Park Road Crouch End, surfaces in Lordship Rec; council complacency
LONDON Centric reports today that a building in Crouch End is (unwittingly) sending untreated raw sewage into London's river system.
On this occasion, Thames Water is not to blame. Responsibility may lie with "dodgy builders and DIY plumbers".
The filth "surfaces in a local Tottenham Park, filled with sewage and wet wipes". The Moselle Brook flows from west to east through the Lordship Recreation Ground, which is the park affected.
Haringey Council is reported to have declined to identify the building in Park Road. This suggests that council officers have undertaken investigation in order to narrow down the source to a single road in the Borough.

Yes.
This matter is not glamorous, it is disgusting and it needs fixing. F.A.O. Cllr. Peray Ahmet (current council leader). Perhaps the London Borough of Culture 2027 will take some action to protect at least this public park from unwanted intrusion.
