Metal gate has dropped
Reported via desktop in the Gate - Damaged/ Missing category anonymously at 18:54, Sunday 26 January 2025
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7035928.
The large metal gate that horses need to use on the bridleway has dropped so that even if you manage to unlatch it it drops right down. It is so heavy that it is impossible to lift it up to open it without injuring yourself. Someone had taken the adjacent footpath gate off so that horses could go through there but livestock were getting through so it has been replaced.

This has still not been fixed. Opening and closing from a horse caused me aggravated back pain. This must be fixed
