Hedge encroaching over the footpath, at the junction of Eaton Road and England's Lane

Reported via mobile in the Hedges category anonymously at 08:58, Saturday 26 July 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7934831.

The hedge is encroaching over the footpath, narrowing it considerably. This has been getting worse year on year. The hedge is hawthorn and bramble with some pieces at eye level, creating a safety issue. It is difficult to pass especially for people with young children and those with limited mobility who find it difficult to walk on the grass verge.
