Public footpath overgrown with nettles and other weeds.

Reported via mobile in the Overgrown Private Vegetation category anonymously at 15:26, Friday 9 May 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7545159.

No attempt by landowner to keep path clear. In fact, the route through the farm is strewn further along with debris, making passage difficult.

  • Investigation: Completed (Highways to Monitor, Routine Inspection Programme) - Thank you for your enquiry. A qualified Highways Inspector has assessed the location, and we can confirm that in accordance with the WNC Highways Inspection Manual, a walkable path has now been created though the vegetation and there is a suitable path around items on the ground. We will be working with the landowner to ensure all objects are moved from the definitive line of the Right of Way and future vegetation is addressed. We will continue to monitor the condition as part of our routine highway inspection schedule. Should you notice the defect worsening, please inform us by raising a new Fixmystreet enquiry.
