Land back or & Dent Close- reducing visibility

Reported via mobile in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 16:55, Thu 20 June 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6133723.

… As you can see from the picture I have taken, although the visibility section about 1.50m meters from the kerb is not great … the overgrown hedge under the control of 8 Dent Close is reducing the visibility and the type of corner, kids on bikes etc It was never really designed to grow to such a height. So although not technically highway land they have a duty to keep in order. As the house is rented there is a strong possibility they don’t even know.
