This eyesore has always caused local residents problems but 2 issues stand out: 1. there is a dog constantly barking, starts at 5am and goes on until 6pm plus, the poor animal must be in some distress. 2. they are always burning waste, not leaves, but something smells bad like rubber only worse. Surely it cannot be right for a business to dispose of it's waste in this way?

Large pothole getting bigger and deeper over a period of 3-4 months. Estimated to now be 15 inch long x 10 inch wide x 2 inch deep. The pothole is situated outside number 13 and in direct line with moving car wheels as cannot be avoided due to parked cars either side of the pothole and the street being narrow. Has got to the point now where stones from the hole flicking up against parked cars at either side and could easily cause a puncture or if left longer potentially suspension damage. Also a second smaller pothole that is getting bigger in size outside number 7 on the same street.
