Reported via mobile in the Tree/hedge restricting available highway category anonymously at 20:20, Tuesday 31 March 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2886994.
The hedge has been half dead and growing onto our side (Number 23). We have started to cut our side but the hedge is over the limit of 2m, it stands at 3m. The hedge has been this tall for as long as we have lived here (about 3 years) and has been maintained poorly by the owners (The residents at number 25). It is a nuisance and when it is windy small bits blow off the rotten wood into you as you walk past. The side of the hedge facing the street hangs out onto the path and has a top-heavy look.

We are sorry but we are not taking immediate action with this report. The hedge in question does not encroach in any notable way onto the highway or currently cause any obstruction. Should the condition worsen, please contact us again and we will investigate further. Thank you for reporting this matter.
