A large and dangerous pot hole just where Medcroft Road meets the village Green

Reported via mobile in the Pothole category anonymously at 12:19, Sunday 29 March 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9206071.

This pot hole is very deep and wide extending over half the carriageway. It has been there for some time. When driving out of the village you need to cross onto the other side of the carriageway to avoid it. This could be very dangerous if a vehicle was coming the other way

Council ref: ENQ261094422

  • This is gradually getting worse. It really needs fixing. Drivers have to go to the other side of the road creating a hazard

  • This was first reported on 29th March..yet lesser potholes further up this road towards the Sturdy's Castle junction have been fixed! This now resembles a trench which extends 3/4 of the width of the road..as the report states, traffic heading out of the village need to swerve over to the wrong side of the road to avoid it. PLEASE treat as an urgent issue OCC!

  • This was reported in March and has been marked with white paint. A photo was suppled back then which shows the extent of the pothole which really needs urgent attention. It's unbelievable that this has been left in this state for so long. Can an urgent proper repair be made asap please.

  • The hole has got worse. Cars have to go on the wrong side of the road to get out of the village. I don’t know how buses are managing. I’ve seen some big potholes but this is the biggest.

  • This pot hole was first reported at the end of March & is still there 7 weeks later. You have to go on the other side of the road to get out of the village which is risk of collision on a tight corner which is frequently used. Why has this been outstanding for such a long time?

  • This pothole has been reported several times time with no action taken I almost had a accident when a van crossed onto my side of the road causing me to brake heavily and narrowly avoiding contact
