The parish council is calling for the water to be tested after concerns about sewage in the system.
A children's playground in Staffordshire has been closed after heavy rainfall caused a nearby river to burst it banks.
Council chair Stephanie Akerman said it had not been able to get any support with testing the area's flood water, which was "frustrating for the community".It is not the first time the parish has experienced flooding and people in the community have expressed concern heavy rainfall had previously resulted in "several instances of a strong sewage smell in the area".
Although the flooded play area resulted from the river bursting its banks, Severn Trent has acknowledged there is a problem in the area.
