Concrete kerb stones on road, 8th June
There are numerous kerb stones that are now in the road due to HGV;s mounting the grass verge and pushing them out. This is on both sides of the road and cars are having to swerve to get round them. You have already been to the ones on the corner and instead of putting them back, have filled them with tarmac.. Now a large amount have come out and are laying in the road.

House's trees hanging right over pavement, 23rd May
As you walk south down St Marys Road, the pavement on the left/east side toward the crossroads has been overgrown with the house on the corner's trees (think its Lovers Cottage) which overhang the pavement by about 4 feet, meaning most of the pavement's width is inaccessible and unusable.

Street lights, 29th October
All the street lights around this roundabout have been not working for at least half a year now, I was wondering when these would finally be fixed as it’s starting to get darker earlier now and there’s always so much traffic round it at rush hour times and when it’s night. I’ve already seen 2 cars in the ditch next to the roundabout, probably because they didn’t realise how tight the roundabout is as you can’t see far with your headlights on
