Severely restricted footpath in Cockley Road between Bowling Green and Farthinghoe Village Hall

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 11:10, Friday 3 October 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8247533.

Farthinghoe Village Hall is a drop off point for pupils of Farthinghoe School It is also regularly used by the school for children's lessons throughout the week. It is a very dangerous walk at the best of times without the added encroachment of domestic hedges. Can something be done to rectify this situation?
