Small but deep pothole corner

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 09:02, Fri 13 June 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7703393.

Pot hole is on the corner, drivers side, if driving from Blakesly to Greens Norton. I was driving from Greens Norton to Blakesly and a car came round the corner on my side of the road just to avoid it - we nearly had an accident.

    This really is becoming a dangerous pot hole on a bend and in the middle of the road. It is getting deeper and difficult to avoid. Please repair.
