DRAINAGE AND SEWAGE DISPOSAL
The soil sewage from the Borough flows to the West Middlesex
Drainage Works at Mogden as it has done since 1936, when the last of
the five disposal works in the area went out of use.
There are still, however, a few properties in the northern part of the
district from which the sewage is treated in small disposal plants, otherwise
all the properties within the Borough are connected to the main
drainage system.
Surface water is disposed of by way of separate sewers that discharge
into local water courses. There are five of these: the River Pinn, the
Yeading Brook, the Kenton Brook, the Wealdstone Brook and the
Edgware Brook.
The rate of flow in these water courses varies with the amount of
rainfall and during sudden storms they may have to carry very large
volumes of water, while during drought the flow may be reduced to a
mere trickle.
