Falling Fence
Reported via desktop in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category by Jonathan Mark Robinson at 10:52, Wednesday 7 January 2026
Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8639992.
There is a section of fence which has fallen into disrepair and is falling over/being pushed over by overgrown vegetation. This fence is there to block access to the railway line, if this completely falls down then there will be nothing to stop unsupervised children climbing down onto the tracks. There is a section further down that has recently been replaced, so please can this falling fence be attended to as well.

I've checked this today and it still hasn't been fixed and is getting progressively worse as the thick vegetation is pushing the fence over. There are now more areas along the fence line that are starting to fall so this needs attending to asap.
