Preston Park ground ‘explodes’

Part of Preston Park ‘exploded’ yesterday when a burst water pipe sent water bubbling up to the surface.

A council spokeswoman said: “The flooding in Preston Park is due to a burst water pipe caused by pressure from a recently overhauled borehole water pump.

“The pump has now been turned off and we are arranging for repairs to be carried out.”
