Hi, we have noticed that a footpath to the stockwood nature reserve has started to lift and crack, from looking at the crack we think a large tree in one of the houses backing onto it’s roots is lifting the pavement and there is bamboo that is doing the same issue. I am quite concerned that it is causing a safety issue as this is a main path for dog walkers down to the reserve and children often ride their scooters and bikes and the split is quite large that something could be caught in it (especially if left) please let me know if more photos would be better! Thank you
