53.563541 -2.58612

This road from the house onwards is in poor repair. It is unadopted land but was last repaired by the council which surely admits ownership. The rugby club have done what repairs they can to make it safe for their patrons given the limited funding, however the whole road needs resurfacing from the tennis courts all the way to the rugby club. The rugby club hosts a variety of the areas sports club as well as rugby including: wrestling club, gym, aspull juniors, falconry as well as the forestry school. These are all vital groups which improve the Borough and sufficient infrastructure repairs to the road are necessary to make this a safe place for these activities to continue. The road also feed the Village on the Green and some houses nearby which pay council tax, yet are not receiving the benefits in reparations of the road.
