Overgrown trees restricting view

Reported via desktop in the Tree/hedge restricting available highway category anonymously at 13:13, Wednesday 10 September 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2855296.

Overgrown hedge and trees outside Millstones house severely restricting view when heading west along North Gate. Particularly bad when trying to pull out of Northgate Mill - it's now got to a stage where you can't see anything at all when pulling out to turn right due to the trees, myself and others have had several near misses and one incident, hit by a HGV coming around the corner.
