Entire verge from Rushey Hey Farm up to junction with Watery Lane

Reported via desktop in the Grass Cutting category anonymously at 21:39, Sat 22 April 2023

Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 4474884.

For some time now the entire verge has been close mown continuously (not by Cheshire East) and now some of the drainage ditch opposite the lay-by has been filled in. The appearance of the lane has been spoilt and the ecosystem damaged whilst I believe the policy is to encourage flora etc. on verges. I wonder if this mowing could be stopped.
