Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8690154.

Drain cover outside no 21 School Lane NN135RY needs replacing, as rusted & there is a hole in it. People walk dogs etc & they might put their foot through/get injured. As rusted it’s very thin. Def needs replacing. The drain is also full of mud & needs unblocking!! Thankyou :))
