Been there for months. Usually avoid because I know it's there, but had to avoid a car coming round corner in opposite direction. Hit pothole and caused a burst tyre. I have hit this pot hole several times before.

Junction of Newbury Road and Hungerford Hill are a large number of potholes on a road surface that is dreadful. Bad enough trying to make the turn into or out of Newbury Road, and then trying to ensure you don't get a puncture or worse. It needs fixing

A huge pothole on the down nearside of Buckham Hill near Chaddleworth 2 feet by four feet by 3 inches deep., 17th February

51.488979 -1.428617

This hole looks like someone went to raise the drain, cut the surrounding tarmac away and then left it. It is so dangerous that it could easily take a wheel off if hit at a bad angle. The worst hole I've ever seen. This has been there a long time.

15 inch pot hole, 4th February

51.480906 -1.440222

The pot hole has appeared within the last few days and appears to be getting worse. It is on the A338 as you are driving towards Wantage. I was unable to avoid it due to oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road. My car now has a damaged wheel and a punctured tyre and I had to arrange recovery of my vehicle. I have been unable to take pictures due to the speed of traffic on the road - it is not safe to do so.

In the last month or so, a large number of serious potholes have appeared on the road with Manor Farm & Hope Farm on it, just south east of Farnborough. There are three very bad patches and a few random large deep potholes with car-killing vertical sides. I had a blowout from one this week and have seen two other people with their cars jacked up on the same stretch.
