A woman who tried to sell her "nightmare" home that has been flooded dozens of times says she has to take anxiety medicine due to stress.
Patricia Clarke and Peter Clarke, who have lived in their Swindon home for three years, say they have spent around £8,000 on protecting it from a "river" of water, which they say is caused by a nearby pond owned by Swindon Borough Council.
The local authority has said it is "incredibly sympathetic" to the couple's situation and is looking at ways to "mitigate the problems" affecting them.
But Mr Clarke said he remains angry at the council for not taking action and is worried for his wife, who spends sleepless nights making sure the water does not enter their home.
"It makes me feel angry," he said. "I get worried for Trish, for her mental health, it's terrible."
