The hedge/bushes around the care facility are encroaching on the footpath, with long thorny bramble stems dangling down, they are also much higher than permitted. The street sign for Easedale Avenue is almost totally obscured again. This was lightly trimmed last year and the clippings left on the pavement, the sign is buried approx 3 feet deep inside the hedge. This was reported eight months ago before the nesting season but nothing was done about it.

  • I have just reported this matter again, the situation has got worse and the height of the bushes is making the area dangerous as the street lighting is being diminished.

    Worse than ever, more hanging thorny twigs/branches, very dangerous especially as the street lighting is being obscured by the height of the bushes.
