Gate post rotted Gte only held up by catch, 24th April

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 00:10:46 +0100
54.909303 -1.834574

Apart from the bridle path being ploughed out in 3 fields, the issue is the gate in the location is only being held up by the gate latch. It will collapse when opened as the gate post has rotted through. It fell on me when I opened it. It's dangerous and needs to be fixed.

Not enough on street parking, 15th May

Mon, 15 May 2017 19:13:00 +0100
54.902687 -1.823878

It is a very narrow lane where all residents have to park their cars. Some homes have drives usually just for one car. Over the last year it has got increasingly difficult to find a car parking spot. On occasions people are parking on grass verges or very close to the junction with main road causing a potential hazard. There are parts of green land off around ennerdale terrace could this be used for additional parking or parking in this area be monitored? . I think it could cause difficulties in the neighbourhood.
