Centre of Longhill Lane between Raven's Bank Cottages and bungalow down the hill

Reported via desktop in the Pothole category anonymously at 11:11, Friday 24 January 2025

Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 7026129.

The pothole has now got much bigger from my last report that you replied to yesterday saying that in 5 days you will come to fix it. However, please note that the flood water needs to be pumped out from the lane before you start work. The first photo A: shows what it is like when the water is low - yes this is low water for this part of the lane! The second photo B: shows in yellow where the last pothole was filled - to the water edge. In red this shows the extent of the pothole since the repair was done. The water is covering the potholes and trying to fill them without pumping out the water is futile, expensive as it won't last and dangerous as there is a very deep hole! I will also email this as you may not look at this report until after you have been out to fix the pothole within the next 5 days. We don't want a repeat of last time!
