Slightly sunk manhole cover and damaged edge of pavement, see photo. Whilst walking westwards along the pavement the toe of my shoe caught the damaged raised edge surrounding the manhole cover causing me to stumble and fall flat on my face, see photo. Apart from the injuries shown are 2 broken teeth and a hole in the knee of my trousers. Face will mend, teeth can be repaired but trousers, no. They need to be replaced.

We are sorry but we are not taking immediate action with this report because it is a BT cover and we have reported it to them for investigation and repair. In the interim period our contractor will make safe. Please contact them directly at https://www.openreach.com/ help-and-support/ damage-health-and-safety if you require any further information. Thank you for reporting this matter.
