At the top of Winn Road there are 2 large trees that have over grown, the lower bit of stem has loads of branches that have grown so much they over taking the pavement making it hard to stay walking in the pavement when passing near it which is forcing my partially sighted mum to swerve and go to the road which is very dangerous and I have seen many with push chairs do the same go on the road as if they are a car! While cars usually race around there from the turning ahead. An accident waiting to happen if these trees are not cut right back to clean and clear the pavement!!!
