Pavement broken and uneven with plants pushing through

Reported via mobile in the Pothole / Failed Reinstatement category anonymously at 12:13, Fri 27 June 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7773730.

The footpath was damaged when works happened on a nearby council property a few years ago and left the path broken and uneven with plants able to grow through.

The result is that the path becomes quickly unusable and access to the village hall and play ground is difficult, especially in winter due to the lack of street lighting in that area.

The path is problematic all the way along the grassy patch but worst as you approach the wall of the village hall.
