  • The path is reduced from 3m wide to less than 50cm.

    Your nettles are blocking up to 1.5m width.

    You need to enforce the private owners hedges as well.

    I have escalated the need for urgent maintenance work on this well used footpath two months ago with a promise that work would be carrried out with some urgency. Two months on the attached pictures now show no work has been carried out and path will soon be unusable. This is the main footpath along the side the Halse Road and an asset of WNC.
