Yes....that is why there was a brickworks at the top end of Clayton.
When our living room floor was taken up there was a mini stream flowing underneath......our house is at the bottom of a slight incline so the water all flows down to the bottom.
Like MargaretR, I think your best bet would be the Lancashire Telegraph and if that doesn't give Hyndburn Homes a kick in the jacksie...then I would be contacting one of the red top nationals......I'm sure they would use it to fan the political fire a bit.
Often stuff that gets into the Telegraph finds its way to the nation newspapers.
