Very deep and sharp edged pothole, 2nd April
This pothole has been developing over the last month at least. It is very sharp edged, wide (composite of 3 or 4 separate holes) and directly in the tyre path of the car on a corner, necessitating crossing into the path of oncoming traffic to avoid hitting it. The edge of the hole is sharp tarmac and cuts tyres/causes pinching against rims.

Rubbish, 17th January
As should be a parent from the photograph, a bin opposite. My home has not been emptied for days and is overflowing with dog poo.
This requires no explanation. All that it requires is for somebody to come out today and remove the waste.
After that, we need a process in place to make sure that this never happens again. That is the least I can expect for the several thousands of pounds a year that I am expected to handover in council tax.
Get it sorted today.

Area spanning County boundary spanning about 20m of very poor road surface with numerous small potholes, 16th November
This section of road has never fully recovered from the 'disinfectant bath' created to combat foot and mouth. I thin the problem is made worse by gravel being washed onto the carriageway from the lane to Eskewbeck farm.
