87 Lansdown Lane, Upper Weston, Bath

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 19:48, Friday 24 January 2025

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 7029461.

I have noticed on walking my dog for a few years now that the hedge belonging to this house has grown so much that it has now reached the roadside kerb covering the pavement. The branches are so prominent that it looks like the house owner has wrapped foil around the branches in order to make them more visible especially on these darker days of the year with sometimes brambles hanging down. I have seen the bus on occasions stop slightly further up from the bus stop as there seems to be a silver car parked for most of the time on the pavement and allowing a bus little room to manoeuvre to pull up, subsequently I have witnessed passengers getting off trying at the same time avoiding the branches overhanging.
