Two 12 inch potholes outside 5 Spinney Hill Road

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 11:53, Mon 3 February 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7077270.

These potholes are getting very deep and when vehicles drive over them it makes my house rattle and shake. One of the potholes was mended last year after a car broke its axle going down it. This repair has now failed, the pothole has reappeared and is as bad as it was previously.
