Huge tree on public ground at Junction of Horton Rd and Main rd

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 09:44, Tuesday 23 September 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8201614.

There is a huge tree on this junction on public land. We assume this is highways property. This tree is causing visability issues when exiting Horton Rd onto the Main Rd if lookig to the right. Also there are a number of other public trees along the boundry of the end property (Dashwood) which are overhanging the property / leaning on the property fencing. This whole area needs attention. Note the pin would not sit in the correct location needs to be slightly west on the south side of the main rd. Also this tree is not marked on your map. If a parish council tree please advise.
