I reported this before, you did say you repaired it Unfortunately there seems to be some confusion where this deep pot hole is it is next to the pedestrian crossing. Also if you look all the way up to windmill farm at top of hill the road is in poor condition on both sides of road.

Since the original report in January and the inspectors conclusion that this is a priority 4 repair, the road condition had deteriorated significantly. This section of road surface on entering the village until the mini roundabout had failed and is very dangerous as drivers swerve to avoid the holes. This needs to be repaired before July!

This section of road is degrading rapidly - please re-inspect, classify properly at a higher priority and fix promptly - before JULY. 7 months from report to fix is not acceptable for this level of potholes. The potholes are starting to interfere with the crossing and ability for traffic to stop.
I would be careful walking across this road surface let alone driving over it.
