There are trees and other vegetation overgrown and pushing down wall to number 6

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 19:14, Thursday 31 October 2024

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6679622.

There are 2 trees overgrown and never maintained that pushing on the wall of 6 High Street and also the roots are damaging the stability of the wall. It is falling towards the alley. The house owner has had it inspected by a structural engineer who says this wall needs to come down due to the damage. It is beyond repair. There is ivy massively overgrowning at end corner. The roots from the trees need to come out as it is going to be destroying any fence put up. This is a dangerous situation. Please contact owner as soon as possible.
