Cannot fully access the bridleway due to thick ground vegetation and overgrown hedgerows.

Reported via mobile in the Passage-Obstructed/Overgrown category anonymously at 11:21, Mon 22 July 2024

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6259591.

I tried to ride this bridleway last week and was unable to fully access the whole bridleway as I got so far and had to turn back. This was due to dense ground cover which was very long and hard to navigate and also due to overgrown hedges and thorns blocking the way.
