Wooden railings and posts to Dallington Brook rotten.

Reported via desktop in the Pedestrian Barriers - Damaged / Missing category by Geoffrey Ashcroft at 10:52, Wednesday 5 November 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8378914.

Old wooden railings and posts to Dallington Brook on Dallington Green have rotted and have now given way. Any ageing member of the public or child could now lean against the fence and fall into the swollen Brook and drown. A recent collision with the end of the fence has further exacerbated the situation.
