Severn Trent has agreed to pay £327,500 to restore a waterway after a sewage spill killed the “vast majority” of its aquatic life.

A blocked sewer polluted a 1.7km (1.05m) stretch of Dimore Brook in Quedgeley, Gloucestershire, in August 2021.

An investigation by the Environment Agency (EA) found the incident killed hundreds of sticklebacks, several eels and thousands of insects.
