Badly maintained road, 22nd December
The road is called the stone and was flailed by a local farmer recently. Since the work has been carried out half broken branches have been falling in the lane and obstructing the road. Locals and myself included have had to remove these branches. There is also a lot of trees that have been badly damaged and will now slowly rot and decline as a result and in the near future break off into the lane. This is a time where we should all be looking after nature and not vandalising it like this. This needs sorting asap before any vehicles or pedestrians get hurt as a result. The culprit should also be made to fix this and learn how to use their equipment properly or get another job.

Overgrown footpath, 27th July
The entire footpath from Stowmarket Road to Chalk Hill Lane is severely overgrown and almost unusable. I couldn't say how long this has been an issue but considering how much overgrowth I had to go through I cannot imagine it is a short term issue.

Complete length of Verge along this lane needs attenting, 13th July
A few weeks ago the verges along of this narrow lane were cut back with little effect, the equipment used was not appropriate and therefore much of the verges were left. These verge's are now so over grown is it very dangerous for people out walking, children, horse riders, cyclist and other vehicle users. These verge's require cutting back using an appropriate method.

Road centre markings/white lines, 26th June
It’s been approx 2 years since this piece of road has been resurfaced some of the centre road markings have been reinstated however the majority of the road has not. I consider this very dangerous as some drivers can’t seem to distinguish one side of the road to the other and have a tendency to drive in the middle.
