A Obstruction (Not Vegetation) problem has been found

Reported via desktop in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category by West Northamptonshire Council at 11:47, Tuesday 20 January 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council 1 minute later. ref: 8727248.

Water seepage appears to be coming through the public footpath situated directly above the basement area. I have also noticed patchwork repairs in front of a few neighbouring houses, suggesting similar issues may have occurred previously. Given the risk of further deterioration and potential structural impact, I kindly ask that an inspection is arranged as soon as possible.
