• Other more recent potholes further along School Road outside the Playing Fields and Parish Hall were repaired on 18th March yet this pothole and the 5 other massive ones around it which are marked with white road markings are still yet to have a defect repair scheduled.

  Please can a defect repair be scheduled for this section of road as a matter of priority
