There is a lamp-post near the end of Ashfield Road which is starting to fall over - you can see the gap between it and the concrete, and it is leaning...

Offensive? Unsuitable? Tell us

The lamp-post is still leaning, but I have had a few emails indicating that the problem is being passed on to the right people. Or so I hope... :/

It is a work in progress, from what I can see - a new lamp-post has been put up next to the leaning one. I imagine that the leaning one will be removed soon, but it hasn't happened yet...

It has progressed a little further now - the replacement is now working. But the old, leaning one is still there. Both have been enclosed by plastic barriers. I suppose this helps somehow, but does obstruct the entire pavement, which is a bit of a pain.

Finally got there - the hole is filled and the new lamp-post works! Hurrah!
