Roundmoor Stream - Dorney / Eton Wick.

This little Thames trib that flows into Ole father opposite Windsor Race Course is currently a foul and stinking mess. What is normally a clear shallow stream flowing over sand and gravel is full of grey sludge that has coated every surface. The stream supports a good head of silver fish, chub and barbel. Likely to be a sewage discharge that has caused this as Slough water treatment works use this stream for effluent. Thanks to Dave Harvey for making a few enquiries and giving me some contacts. EA are aware but I suspect its too late and the damage has been done.

Truly disgustring !

It's the dirty ditch which runs from the slough STW to the Thames, come out opposite Windsor Racecourse. Awaiting more from the EA but doesn't sound good, thank you Thames Water

Dave found this earlier, it's another of those "we're allowed to do it" situations. Evil or Very Mad
