Several gardens have been flooded with sewage as a result of mains burst in East Cowes this morning.

Opposition has grown to an ‘intrusive’ plan for toilet and shower facilities at a 19th century barracks.

Councillor Karl Love, who represents East Cowes, said the project has been six years in the making and will transform Albany Green.

Karl Love, the independent county councillor for East Cowes, has described the move as “unbelievable, uncaring and totally out of step”.
