A recent heavy rainstorm in the Sheffield region caused an awkward job for River Don Works Building Services Department. The blocked culvert under the works caused flooding in the Foundry where casting pits filled with water. Rubbish thrown into Bagley Brook had blocked the culvert. In order to prevent a repetition of the flooding, Sheffield Corporation were going to fit a grid to stop rubbish being swept into the culvert where the Brook goes underground.
