An elderly couple are living in a 'nightmare' - as their home has been flooded 20 times over the past three years.<br /><br />Peter, 74, and Patricia Clarke, 76, moved into the property on Grange Park, Swindon, in 2021 from Cornwall to be closer to their son.<br /><br />But when they bought the property they did not imagine that a pond on council land near their home would regularly overflow and pour into their back garden.<br /><br />In an attempt to stop the flood and protect the house, Mrs Clarke has even dug ditches and built a DIY dam.
