Stowe Road, Langtoft, first lamp post west of Truesdale Gardens junction What3words location: behind.popping.multiples

Reported via desktop in the Tree blocking a street light category anonymously at 17:51, Sun 26 October 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2859487.

The tree / shrubs at this location have completely grown over the street light so the busy public highway footpath is in shade at night. Stowe Road is a busy route and the night time shade at this busy location makes it very hazardous for pedestrians.
