Large pothole and also overgrown shrubbery

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 09:15, Fri 18 July 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7896515.

The road is terrible with pothole from guilsborough junction into Hollowell. Also the shrubbery on both sides scratches cars and makes you drive into the middle of the road. There is one patch where a fallen branch hasn’t been removed and remains overhanging the roadside. The whole road is dangerous.
