Pot holes. Just drive over it. Car made a massive bang noise.

Reported via mobile in the A pothole in road category anonymously at 17:40, Sunday 18 January 2026

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8715156.

Not sure how big it is but felt like it v nearly did damage to my car. Please take a look. I think there are 3 there and the general road surface is awful.
