In progress
The gate needs to be made easier to open whilst mounted
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6379039.
The track is badly over grown and the gate has a return spring on it which is too keen, the gate is hard to open whilst mounted, the catch is awkward and it is badly over grown, there is no livestock , it is just un managed shrub, the gate could be removed it is not needed. the catch is stiff / awkward and the return spring is asking for an accident, if it wacks shut on a horses middle/ backside, one should not need to dismount to open a gate.
