Hedges overgrown into path

Reported via mobile in the Overgrown Private Vegetation category anonymously at 18:48, Wednesday 11 March 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 9089794.

The hedges on the corner which border this property boundary are overgrown, as a result the path is half its width and it’s becoming quite tight for wheelchairs and pushchairs to pass by.
